JYM Courses · LMU Munich and TUM Courses · Research Projects

Students with strong German language abilities may begin taking all their coursework at LMU Munich immediately. Students wishing a more gradual integration into the German university system may first want to take a combination of JYM area studies courses and LMU Munich courses.

A typical student class schedule consists of a combination of JYM and LMU Munich courses. Students create their own class schedule from the following options:

• JYM Courses
All students are required to take Advanced German Language (JY 310/320) each semester.

JYM area studies courses are electives. They have been designed to bridge the transition from US-style to German-style university studies, and include field trips to cultural events and sites of historical interest in and around Munich.

• LMU Munich Courses
All JYM students are directly enrolled at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU Munich) and have access to the full university curriculum except medicine and law.

• TUM Courses
Qualified students may also take coursework in engineering and the sciences at the Technische Universität München (TUM).

• Translation Studies
Students wishing to focus on translation may take coursework at Das Fremdspracheninstitut der Landeshauptstadt München (Munich`s College of Translation Studies)

• Internships for Credit
JYM provides an opportunity for students to earn credit for academic work done in conjunction with an internship.

• Undergraduate Research Projects
JYM can help students customize a research project that matches their interests and needs.
