German and Psychology double major Darby Watford, one of this year’s recipients of the Eady Scholarship for Study Abroad, is currently interning in Berlin as part of CofC’s Cultural Vistas Summer Internship to Germany program.

“I have loved my time in Germany! Being fully immersed in the German culture has allowed me to practice my German language skills with native speakers and has helped me improve immensely as a student and a person. As an intern at Dr. Thorsten Dolla’s orthopedic/sports medicine practice in Berlin, I have been able to dive into the field of orthopedics and healthcare in Germany.”

Congratulations to German Studies and Marine Biology double major Ali Isaacs ’23, who received a nationally competitive Gilman Scholarship for Study Abroad in Germany this summer. Ali took an intensive language course at the Carl-Duisburg Institute in Berlin in May and is interning at Geomar in Kiel, Northern Germany, where she is studying the effects of ocean plastic wastes on sea sponges.
