The Student of Prague (German: Der Student von Prag, also known as A Bargain with Satan) is a 1913 German silent horror film. It is loosely based on "William Wilson", a short story by Edgar Allan Poe, the poem The December Night by Alfred de Musset, and Faust. The film was remade in 1926, under the same title The Student of Prague. Another remake was produced in 1935. The film stars Paul Wegener in his film debut. It is generally deemed to be the first German art film. Composer Josef Weiss wrote a piano score to accompany the film. It was the first film score written for a German language film in the history of cinema.

It was shot at the Babelsberg Studios and on location around Prague. The film's sets were designed by the art director Robert A. Dietrich.
