A student studying abroad with USAC: Luneburg - German Language, European Studies, and Engineering
I learned that life abroad is perfect for me. I may be back in the United States, but I'm an ex-pat at heart! - University of Idaho View Entire Review
Past Review Usac Lueneburg
It was worthwhile for the experiences of traveling that I made for myself, but I did not feel the program itself actually helped me. I did learn a fair amount about the German culture while I was there. - University of Nevada – Las Vegas View Entire Review

Oh yeah. Absolutely. - Rice University View Entire Review
I fell in love with Lüneburg in my three months there. The town is absolutely beautiful. Coming from the US, it's crazy to see so many old, old buildings that go so far back. The courses aren't incredibly challenging, but if it's learning German that you want, spend more time out in the town and less inside the dorm room. - California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo View Entire Review
I really enjoyed being abroad this summer--it was so worth it. There were ups and downs, but it was a valuable experience.

About

The Lüneburg program is ideal for students interested in learning the German language and focusing on European Studies—specifically Germany’s role within the European Union. Through formal coursework and personal interaction with the host culture, you will greatly expand your language skills and knowledge of German society. Lüneburg offers students the quality of life of a smaller community without sacrificing the cultural resources and activities of a large metropolitan city. Lüneburg is also only 30 minutes away from the former East Germany, providing a unique vantage point from which to study the dynamics of reunification. The program offers three diverse academic areas: German Language, European Studies, and Engineering. The intensive language approach allows you to complete up to two years of university language requirements in one semester. Additional courses in economics, history, culture, art history, literature, intercultural communication, politics, and engineering are taught in German or English to provide a well-rounded curriculum. You may choose to stay for one semester, a full year, or choose do partake in a summer sesssion. However, the academic courses are only a part of the intended value of a program abroad. Participation in cultural activities, festivals, and field trips to Hamburg, Celle, Bremen and an optional tour to Berlin also form an integral part of the program.
