German Language Courses
General language courses during summer

Summer Courses Organized by DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service)
The aim of the courses is to enable students through intensive teaching to “immerse” for four weeks in a foreign language and culture. The courses will be taught exclusively by native speakers. In addition to language acquisition, the courses offer students the opportunity to acquaint themselves through culture-related project work not only with the language, but also with the country, its people, the academic institutions in the city of Hamburg as well as with German culture and civilization.
