German as a Foreign Language
Curricular vs. Optional Language Courses
All of the language courses at the University of Greifswald can be taken either as part of a degree course’s curriculum or as an optional extra.
If you have registered for a language course as part of the curriculum, it will count towards the required ECTS as stipulated in the relevant examination and study regulations (including Optional Studies/General Studies). If you register for a language course as an optional extra, you do this out of personal interest, regardless of your examination and study regulations.
