In my experiences living and studying abroad in Germany, those that got the most of their time were those students who used their time outside the classroom to learn more about Germany as well.

Antisepsis Antisepsis is the prevention or inhibition of an infection by either killing the organism responsible for the infection, or weakening the organism so that it is unable to cause the infection or survive.
Antisepsis was recommended by Hungarian physician Ignaz Semmelweis in 1847, but he was ignored or even ridiculed. 1  The widespread introduction of antiseptic surgical methods followed the publishing of the paper Antiseptic Principle of the Practice of Surgery in 1867 by Joseph Lister, inspired by Louis Pasteur's germ theory of putrefaction.
