Language Courses in the Winter Semester 2025/26
Please note
- Registration for all courses will be activated on 1 September 2025 via ILIAS. We will remind you of the start of the registration period in a separate e-mail.
- Unfortunately, the last semesters showed us that there are participants who register for, but never attend the actual language courses and thus block places. We will thus have to exclude participants who are absent without advance notification and give their places to candidates from the waiting list. If you find that you cannot attend the courses after all, please make sure to cancel your registration by contacting us out of consideration for your fellow students!
- Participants who have attended a course with us in the last semester and who register for the follow-up course before 15 September 2025 will be given priority. After this date, prioritisation will not be possible anymore.
- If you already have attended a course with us, you know your language level. The same applies to everyone who took part in our English placement test as part of their studies. For all others, please take a quick placement test and register for the language level indicated there. The only exception is Japanese: if you are unsure about this, please contact Masayoshi.Tsuchiya@hsbi.de
