English Courses at the Department of Engineering and Communication (IWK)

We encourage international students to take advantage of internship opportunities (Internship Semester) within one of these research groups. Participating in an internship not only provides hands-on experience but also opens avenues for potential collaboration on groundbreaking projects. For those seeking a seamless integration of their internship with their academic journey, there's the option to have the internship recognized as a final thesis.

Following courses in English will be offered in the semester to come for our international students:

For those keen on immersing themselves in the German language, we also provide German courses, accompanied by self-study materials in English. It's worth noting that these courses, though conducted in German, are designed to be accessible to non-German speakers. The department understands the importance of fostering a global perspective and ensuring that language barriers don't hinder academic success. Our lecturers will do everything possible to ensure a successful semester abroad to our incoming students.
