However, our offers are also aimed at international students from other degree programmes. Students from various Faculties and degree programmes with a particularly international focus are supported.

What are the contents of the program?

Promote your Career supports the acquisition of the German language with innovative German language courses, teaches practical, job-related and technical communication skills and thus offers new, closely networked career guidance and insights into the world of work and careers in Germany.
