Course content and learning objectives
This general German language course serves as an introduction to the basic use of German. The aim is to enable learners to communicate in a simple manner as quickly as possible so that they can quickly settle into and find their way around their new environment, especially at university. The course is communication-oriented. Students learn to communicate appropriately in basic everyday situations. Reading, listening, speaking, writing, grammar and cultural studies are taught in an integrated manner.

The course assesses listening, reading, writing and speaking skills.
You cannot obtain an official language certificate in this course.

Please note that ECTS/credit points are not divisible. However, whether and how many credit points you will be awarded depends on the examination regulations for your degree programme.
