Department of German
The Department of German was established in 1959 as a branch of the Higher Institute of Languages. The teaching staff at that time consisted of a number of German professors. The period of study was three years, after which the graduate was awarded a higher diploma. In the academic year 1962-1963, the institute was transformed into the College of Languages, and the period of study in the German language Department became four years, during which a bachelor’s degree was granted in the German language. In 1970-1971, the College of Languages was joined to the College of Arts, and the German language department linked to the European Languages Department. In the academic year 1978-1979- the department became independent from the Department of European Languages to stand as a department by itself, and it remained so even after the re-establishment of the College of Languages in 1987. The German language department is one of the ancient departments in the College of Languages, University of Baghdad, in which students learn the foundations, principles, and science of the German language and literature
