Description
In cooperation with the International Office and the Language Center, the Center for Doctoral Studies offers visiting reseachers high-quality German classes at all levels during their stay. You may register for all German courses of the Semester Course Program. If you have had previous knowledge in German, you need to take a placement test. Dates for the placement test can be found under Dates & Deadlines. There you can also learn more about registration procedures.
You find further information on the registration procedure and course regulations in the Semester Course Guide.
