The Semester in Regensburg is an exchange program sponsored by Murray State
University and Universität Regensburg.
Though it provides opportunities for advanced German language study, it is
tailored to the BEGINNING and INTERMEDIATE student of German, who requires
courses taught in English to complete a semester's schedule. Thus it offers a
semester of study at a German university to students with little or no prior
knowledge of the German language. Offered every fall semester, it combines
German language instruction at the introductory and intermediate levels with
courses in various disciplines taught in English by Murray State faculty.
Students from Universität Regensburg attend Murray
State University as part of the program.
