SEMESTER EVENTS PROGRAMGerman as Academic Language

Content

Students do not only encounter German as academic language when reading. Usually starting with their first semester, students produce texts themselves in the form of essays, protocols or term papers. In lectures and seminars as well, a language is spoken differently than outside the academic context.

This workshop is aimed at international students who wish to improve their knowledge of German for academic purposes. You will learn the characteristics of academic German in its written and spoken form regarding vocabulary, syntax and style.

Please Note

This course will be offered in German. Prerequisites are therefore good German language skills (min. Intermediate Course II).

The workshop is aimed at international students in their first academic semesters of Bachelor’s or state examination programmes.
