The degree program is partially taught in French. Therefore, you will need good active French language proficiency (B1 level according to the CEFR). Although prior language proficiency is not necessary for enrollment, you will need to provide proof of your abilities before the beginning of the lecture period through a language entrance test. Alternatively, you can provide this evidence through comparable language certificates (e.g. DELF B1, an \u201cAbiBac\u201d certificate, or a general university entrance qualification in French).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you did not take the language entrance test at the beginning of your studies, you can still enroll in Module 1 without prior proof of language proficiency. Successfully passing the final exam for Module 1 also fulfills the language entrance test requirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Program structure<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The French degree program primarily consists of the five pillars of linguistics, literature, and cultural studies as well as subject didactics and language practice classes (translation, grammar, oral and written communication). The practical language courses will help you further develop your foreign language skills.  In the French program, you will also learn how to impart your knowledge to your future pupils in a fun and creative way, and get them enthusiastic about the subject.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
