Summer Language Study Program

Funding from this award must be used for student travel to/from and participation in an intensive, immersive summer language course. Preference will be given to programs held in Germany, Austria, or German-speaking Switzerland, but upon request and application, high-quality programs located in the U.S. (such as Middlebury) are also eligible. The award process follows the guidelines of Office of Student Fellowships; the summer language course grant can be combined with smaller grants from Hroswaith administered by the department as well as grants from other funding sources.

Summer Research

Students may apply for support from the Hroswaith Fund to undertake independent summer research on their own project, supervised by a department faculty member.

Students apply for summer fellowships and, if favorably reviewed but not funded by the college, may be considered for Hroswaith funds if available. Please note that this is not a research assistant fellowship.

Eligibility:

First-years, sophomores, and juniors may apply; current seniors are not eligible. Only programs that have a major focus on German language study (at least 20 instructional hours in the language per week) are eligible for funding by this grant. Preference will be given to students who 1) have already demonstrated a commitment to learning German and continued pursuit of German Studies; 2) have not previously lived or studied in a German-speaking country; 3) plan to participate in an intensive summer program lasting 4 weeks or longer that will in all likelihood be transformative to their academic engagement with language and culture of German-speaking countries; 4) have not previously received a Hroswaith grant; and 5) have demonstrated financial need.
