Master's students enrolled in an English programme interested in working in or around Freiburg as well as those looking for an internship or an employment possibility in a German-speaking country
Germany is one of the world’s most attractive destinations for professional growth. But if you want to turn your degree into a career, German is still the essential key to the German job market.
Our "Fit for the German Job Market" intensive course is your gateway to employment in Germany and other German-speaking countries. You will master the German language contextually, learn to communicate confidently and naturally, present yourself effectively to German employers, and gain confidence navigating intercultural situations.
Beyond language skills, the course equips you with a professional toolkit: hands-on workshops guide you through writing CVs and cover letters, conducting mock interviews, and developing strategies for bridging cultural gaps. Guided tours of local businesses and start-ups give you a real-world glimpse of German.
All participants receive a graded certificate at the end of the course that records the individual CEFR level achieved and awards up to 3 ECTS credits.
The student dining hall ("Mensa") and the university cafeterias offer a wide range of dishes and snacks at reasonable prices, including vegetarian and vegan dishes.
