Due to the current framework conditions affecting public funding, as well as currently limited staffing resources, we will unfortunately be able to offer a reduced number of courses in some language areas next semester.
This reduction does not affect all language areas and is likely to be temporary. We hope to expand our course offerings again in the affected areas in Summer Semester 2027.
As fewer places than usual will be available in the affected language areas, we kindly ask you to register for a course only if you intend and expect to be able to attend regularly and complete the course successfully. This will help ensure that the limited places are available to as many interested students as possible.
Thank you for your understanding.

With regards to our target audience of German and international students, teachers/researchers, doctoral candidates, administrative employess, and guest auditors, the Language Center offers customized courses with the focus on a practice-oriented curriculum for acquiring vital intercultural and verbal skills. Thus, the European Union and the HRK's endorsed goal of multilingualism is specifically promoted by the Language Center's self-conception. For the educational training of already distinguished experts into globally-, integratively-, and socially responsible-thinking individuals, multilingualism as well as the acquirement of methodological and personal skills are of the utmost importance.
