STUDY journalism and German in this month-long trip, spending the first few weeks practicing language skills in a classroom setting and the final week in an intensive media seminar. ENCOUNTER everything from little known Leipzig hotspots to major government centers where you can conduct one-on-one interviews with American and German politicians. EXPLORE the Germany of both today and yesterday.
Only a two-hour train ride from Leipzig, Dresden in the 20th century was a leading European centre of art, classical music, culture and science until its complete destruction on February 13 1945. The bombing of Dresden by the Royal Air Force and the United States Army Air Force between February 13 and February 15 1945 remains one of the more controversial Allied actions of the Western European theatre of war.
