ISSK offers German language courses for students, PhD candidates, postdocs, visiting scholars, and employees at JGU. All classes take place during the semester and are free of charge for members of JGU and participants from cooperating academic institutions.

Please note: The registration period for ISSK courses differ from registration phases of the regular semester events at JGU. Please find registration dates here.

Registration is conducted in three steps. We look forward to seeing you!

Our German language courses are divided into different levels according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEF or CEFR). Some courses some have a specific focus (e.g. studies & career, or scientific writing). Please find more details in the course descriptions in JOGU-StINe.

Depending on your previous knowledge (e.g. documented by a language certificate or a placement test), you will find the course recommendation here.
