1. Brief Introduction<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The German department was founded in 1963, as a German section under the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures. In 1975 the German section was allowed to upgrade its status to Department level, which means it could have its own faculty members and staffs. The Goal of the German Department aims at educating students with high competence of Germen language skill and acknowledge, so that they can engage in diplomacy and foreign trade.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Since 1994 the department implements Junior Abroad Program, it sends every year about 20 students to Bonn University, Germany, to study there for one year. But the program was regrettably expired by the Bonn University in 2020. In order to provide the students with the chance to study in abroad, in 2021 we signed a Student Exchange Program with the University of Saarland, Germany, and are entitled to send 6 exchange students to study there for one year.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

According with the internationalization policy of the TKU, the department selects each year 5 exchange students to study in Bonn and Cologne universities, Germany, also for one year. In addition, the department provides an opportunity for all students to participate the summer camps which hold in German universities.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In school year 110 (2021), there are seven full-time faculty members: one professor, one associate professor and five assistant professors. All our full-time faculty members are graduated from German universities und have received their doctor degreed in Germany. In addition, we have 12 part-time faculty members, most of whom have received their MA degreed from German universities. The expertise of our full-time faculty members stretch from German literature, linguistic, foreign language teaching to European studies.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
