Progam of Study: 
International Studies
  1. All students must achieve 3 semesters (3 courses) in a language other than their native tongue. Equivalent proficiency will be evaluated by the Language Department using transcripts, exams, or other methods approved by the Language Department Chair.
  2. The minor requires a short-term, academic experience outside of the United States (of one week or longer), approved in advance by the ITS Committee. Current University programs that would fulfill this requirement include the “Border Trip,” Belize, Oxford, Seville, and Cuernavaca. Non-Heidelberg academic programs can be accepted, but must be approved in advance by the ITS Committee. Academic travel undertaken prior to admission to Heidelberg will under no circumstances be accepted as a fulfillment of this requirement.
