Learning Goals / Competences

14211: General: The main focus is to raise the language skills to a higher level (C1), in particular vocabulary / terminology as main part of the course. Exercises for the detailed reception, structuring and formulation of sophisticated oral and written texts as well as to improve the academic skills in general.

Professional Competence: Development of a high communicative competence and the development of scientific ways of working, e.g. after the course the students will be able to do presentations at a high academic level and present in a coherent way according to the vocabulary and grammar.

14212: General: Students acquire the German language based on the four skills: reading, text production, listening and speaking. The emphasis is on being able to master everyday situations in the target language according to the CEFR (everyday situations like shopping, directions, flat-hunting; reading newspaper advertisements; writing letters of application; taking part in a short job interview and providing oral and written information about oneself, one’s education and job experience; being able to ask questions and understand instructions in a new job environment, etc.).

Professional Competence (General language skills according to the CEFR): Listening: can understand words and phrases in familiar contexts, if they are spoken slowly and clearly (for example: basic information about oneself, family, shopping, work, and the immediate surrounding environment). Reading comprehension: can understand straightforward information in short texts dealing with business or familiar everyday situations Text production: can compose simple phrases and sentences. Speaking: can give simple descriptions of persons, routine tasks, personal preferences, living and work conditions, etc. Individual statements are joined in a linear fashion. Can also give simple descriptions of education and background, immediate environment and items connected to immediate needs.

General Competence: Students lead group discussions on current topics in the target language.
