The university supports the importance for international students of learning the German language. We offer courses at all levels for our international students, so that they can learn about the language and culture of their host country, an essential part of living, studying, and perhaps working in Deutschland.
German courses are offered starting each winter semester, depending on levels required.
To assist us in the organization of these courses, please take a placement test (https://einstufungstests.klett-sprachen.de/eks/DaF-A1-C1/) and send the result to: Katharina.Betker-Zawisko@hs-gm.de It is very important that you do this as early as possible, in order to guarantee your place!
IMPORTANT: If you have absolutely NO knowledge of German, you do NOT need to take a placement test, just contact Frau Betker-Zawisko.
