Dawson students enrolled in German courses may take part in the German section鈥檚 annual exchange to Germany.
In collaboration with our German partner schools in Freiburg, we offer our students the opportunity to听welcome a young German partner at home for two weeks in the fall and then visit the partner at his or her home in Freiburg for two weeks the following spring.
In Germany, our students, together with teachers from both Montr茅al and Freiburg, will discover the lovely city of Freiburg, located in the Black Forest. In addition to German language courses offered in the morning, our students will experience daily life in Germany at their partner鈥檚 home. From Freiburg, we will go on day trips to nearby Basel (Switzerland) and Strasbourg (France). After our two-week stay in Freiburg, our group will then head to Berlin, to spend four days in Germany鈥檚 exciting capital.
The cost per student is $1700 (for the 2017-2018 exchange; cost may vary). In the past, the Minist猫re de l鈥櫭塪ucation et de l鈥橢nseignement Sup茅rieur du Qu茅bec has always supported our students financially with generous grants.
