Preparatory German Courses at TU Braunschweig Technische Universität Braunschweig

In the Preparatory German Courses at TU Braunschweig, you can learn the German language skills for studying in Germany within a short period of time. Together with other international students, you will practise your German language skills at the language centre and prepare for the language test required for university admission in Germany. If you have successfully passed the test, you can study at TU Braunschweig or another German university.

We teach language competence in all four skills (listening, reading, speaking, writing), paying particular attention to the university context. You will practise study-relevant skills (e.g. participation in discussions, preparation of papers, presentations, and teamwork) and learn more about cultural and regional aspects of Germany.

The A1 and A2 level courses are offered in hybrid format. You can also attend them if you are unable to be in Germany at the start of the course.

Would you like to live in a city that isn’t too big, in a green city, in one where you can quickly cycle to cultural events, concerts and friends? Then Braunschweig is exactly what you’re looking for.

The Lion City — as Braunschweig is also known — is a historic and vibrant student city with around 250,000 inhabitants. A young cultural and pub scene meets medieval alleyways here. In Braunschweig, you can either spend a quiet afternoon in one of the many cosy cafés or cheer on the local football or basketball team in the supporters’ stand. Picturesque streets lined with old buildings sit right next to many green parks. Braunschweig is full of surprises. Above all, it is a liveable city in one of Europe’s most research-intensive regions.
