Surveying the different departments at the U of M, we find the following:
Chemistry: although the university's general requirement that a student take four semesters of a foreign language can be satisfied by studying any language, those who are majoring in chemistry take German, according to the department's web site.
Biology: undergraduates who want to go on and do graduate work in Biology are told to take either German, Russian, or French.
Engineering: working with the university's Center for European Studies, and with the university's European Union Center, the school of engineering a two-semester series of courses: German for Engineering I and German for Engineering II. Interestingly, there is no "Spanish for Engineering"!
