If you would like to attend one or more language courses during winter semester 2026/27 and improve not only your language skills but also your intercultural understanding, please note the following:
Courses
The course catalog for the Language Centre will be released in campo course by course. The range of courses that can be taken alongside your degree program is available under the heading General electives including key qualifications and language courses > Language courses (according to language). The range of courses integrated into degree programs is accessible via the tree structure of your degree program. Please note that changes to the courses on offer are possible until the beginning of the lecture period. Please therefore check all the information again before the semester begins.
