One option would be to dedicate some ECTS credits to the beautiful Schiller dialect.
It can be chosen as an elective and will generally have a total of 6 ECTS of the 30 that a university semester has. You can continue to opt for this option throughout the quarters or revoke it.
Each student can, depending on the modules proposed by their center and their university year, decide to follow courses of one level or another (according to the steps of the CEFR or Common European Framework of Reference).
In this way, you can study history, law, geography, chemistry or anything else and also have some German credits taught in university classrooms.
Another option would be to choose a degree entirely or almost in German, which would correspond to a certain vocation.
For example, it would be the case of completing a degree in German, Spanish-German Studies or Translation and Interpreting with German as the first foreign language.
In general, most choose to be German teachers or pursue careers as translators or interpreters.
In any case, these degrees offer training based on civilization, culture, linguistics and literature.
Whatever studies you do, you can always go abroad for some time with Erasmus scholarships or if you do Spanish-German studies. In some cases, even in Germany, the degrees can be in English and therefore attract people who start with German.
Those who have doubts can choose to study German for their pleasure through distance support or through private German classes at home, the prices of which vary depending on the teacher’s qualifications.
The disadvantage of these two solutions that you will not have an academic proof.
On the contrary, the level of fluency that you acquire will always be an advantage and will allow you to advance along the paths that we describe below.
