Academic Specialization-Days 10-11










Week 2 of the International Summer University is perhaps the most intense week for students regarding their individual course specialization (international marketing, business, or public health). All students participant in the international cultural competency and German language/culture course. However, the specialization requires the students to explore how different cultures must work and learn together (for each specialized area). Students do have a little free time this week to catch up on laundry, reading, and perhaps seeing Osnabruck. Tuesday faculty made dinner together (from scratch) at the home of Professor Griese (Kai). We enjoyed Käse Spätzle which is homemade pasta/dough (which we made) that is bolied for only a few minutes. Then it is placed in a large dish and combined in alternate layers with cheese and little butter. The three types of cheese were all of the "real" and carried a "strong" odor. In the end it was delicious dinner and a delightful evening to celebrate our halfway point for the International Summer University. This weekend we go to Paris to expand our knowledge and experience of a new international culture in Paris. However, Wednesday we visit the world's largest covered ship construction site where they build the world's largest cruise ships.
