The focus of the program will be on the U.S. and Germany’s efforts in the field of renewable energy, and look at concrete examples of local action in Bonn.

You'll have the opportunity to participate in a group project guided by project advisors who come from the field.

All courses are conducted in English. Knowledge of German is not a prerequisite. The program does not include a course on German language.

A one day workshop on German culture and language is included in the local orientation.

During your final week, you’ll get the chance to use what you’ve learned over the duration of the program to ask informed questions and discuss relevant topics with politicians, practitioners and researchers while in Berlin. 

This program was developed in cooperation with the Initiative for Sustainability and Energy at Northwestern University (ISEN).
