If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart." - Nelson MandelaStudying Germanic languages and literature offers you much more than mastering communication in Dutch, English or German.It also offers you a "journey" through the linguistic, literary, cultural, socio-political and media landscapes of Dutch-, English- or German-speaking countries, and enables you to acquire intercultural skills in high demand on the Belgian and international job markets.
