The German and Russian programs at Willamette offer courses in language, literature, and cultural studies. Our courses and program activities provide opportunities to experience and study the rich language, arts, and everyday life of German-speaking and Russian-speaking peoples.

We offer major and minor programs in German, as well as a minor program in Russian, and students can apply for a special major in Russian if they study abroad in a Russian studies program.

We encourage students to participate in international education programs. In recent years our students who are learning German have studied in Berlin, Munich, Tübingen, Graz, and Vienna, and our students who are learning Russian usually have attended Tavrida National University in Simferopol, with whom Willamette has a longstanding exchange program.
