Welcome
Welcome to the website of the Oxford University German Society!
The German Society has recently celebrated its centenary and is Oxford's cultural, political and social society for the diverse German-speaking world. We pride ourselves on being the hub for all Oxford students who are interested in German culture and language as well as politics and business. With our events, we aim to cater for many different tastes and we are sure that you will also find many of our events enjoyable and interesting.
We regularly organise film nights on which popular German movies are screened and give our members the opportunity to get to know each other better at formal dinners and more informal parties. Hilary 2010 will see the return of traditional delights such as the Weißwurstfrühstück and the German Beer Tasting. We also regularly play host to leading academics, authors, politicians and businesspeople, either from the German-speaking world or with some relevant connection to it. This term, we are, among others, hosting the Nobel Prize winner Professor Harald zur Hausen. Finally, after our trip to London last term, the Cambridge and LSE German Societies are coming to visit us for what we are sure will be an evening to be remembered.
We look forward to hearing from you or meeting you in person at one of our next events. If you have any questions in the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact us.
With best wishes,
The Committee of the German Society
