| Title | FU-BEST in Berlin Invites Student Applications |
| Body | Freie Universität Berlin invites applications for its undergraduate FU-BEST (Berlin European Studies) program for Fall 2010 and beyond. * Based on the U.S. academic calendar, FU-BEST offers a strong intensive German language program as well as an exciting menu of content courses taught mostly in English but also in part in German. * There is no language prerequisite for participation in this program, but all participants are obligated to enroll on-site in German language training at their particular level. * The content courses cover topics from a variety of disciplines, ranging from political science, history, philosophy, and sociology to music history, architecture, film studies, marketing/management, and art history. * Starting Fall 2010, two new courses will be added to the menu: “European Legal Traditions” and “Environmental Politics and Policy in Europe”. * The program has hosted participants from a wide range of mostly U.S. colleges and universities, featuring a growing number of formal institutional partnerships. Student feedback has been very positive. * Every semester features a week-long off-site excursion (in the case of Fall 2010, to France), as well as local field-trips and cultural events. * Participants are housed in homestays or single-occupancy apartments, but may also opt out of these choices if they set up their own housing sufficiently in advance of the program. The application deadline for participation in the Fall 2010 semester is May 1, and October 15 for the Spring 2011 semester.
