- Description/content
- Graduates of the integrated study programme Mainz-Dijon in German and French Studies are granted two national degrees in the respective disciplines. The programme is based on a fixed binational course of study that focusses on literary studies, linguistics, and cultural studies. Linguistic mediation in the form of French-German translation is also a common study content. In the Franco-German Module, all participants obtain intercultural competencies and reflect on the different education systems. The Franco-German Module includes an intensive language preparation course, which helps students to successfully integrate into the partner system.
Once students arrive at the partner university, they may benefit from diverse mobility grants for the duration of their stay abroad (ERASMUS+, Franco-German university network). Furthermore, they are exempt from tuition fees at the host university.
The programme also includes an obligatory internship in the partner country that allows students to deepen their intercultural experiences as well as take the first steps towards the creation of an international professional network.
