SAUSAGE-loving Germans are being offered degrees in their favourite subject - bangers.
Expert Norbert Wittmann has set up the Sausage Academy in Neumarkt to offer qualifications in the appreciation and preparation of German sausages.
Students can earn a BA diploma - Banger Authority - by boosting their studies with extra seminars in lager choices, mustard appreciation and which oompah band music goes with different types of sausage.
Academy principal Wittmann explained: "I love it. I have to eat white sausage twice a day. Sunday is the only day I don't eat white sausage.
"I have students from all over the world and I am glad to be spreading the good news about German sausage around the globe," he added.
Serious students can go on to take a masters' course in what German's consider the holy grail or sausage - the Bavarian white.
According to the Austrian Times 1,300 students graduated this year with the BA certificate.

Why not? You can get degrees in political science. Sausage making, political science, what’s the difference?

I have a family member that’s getting her Masters in Television Management from Drexel. That’s right, 7 yrs of school to run a TV station.

There are two things you do *not* want to know how they’re made: Sausages and laws.

Good sausage is a nice thing, and somebody has to make it. This isn’t the wurst idea I’ve heard today.
