Our German language courses prepare you for the DSH. In class, students work on actual exam tasks which are analyzed and discussed in the group together with the teachers. In addition, we cover the grammar and vocabulary of the German Academic Language (Deutsche Wissenschaftssprache /DWS) to ease the transition to a program of study in Germany. The content of lessons also covers topics that are relevant to studying and living in Germany. This will enable you to integrate socially and academically.

The lessons also train competencies and skills that are important for a program of study in Germany. You will receive additional materials to work through independently or in groups during the self-study units. Students and teachers then meet in the attendance phases to discuss results together. In this way, you will get to know the learning practice at a German university at an early stage.
