- Description/content
- Our international summer schools have a long tradition: Each year, we offer four-week intensive courses in German language and culture during the semester breaks. In these courses, you will learn German in small groups at three different language levels. During our lessons, you will improve your grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary at the language levels A1 to B2. You will also learn a lot about German culture and regional studies.
Our courses are complemented by an extensive social and excursion programme that allows participants to get to know TU Braunschweig and the region around Braunschweig. We will visit regional companies and museums and explore various TU Braunschweig facilities. During excursions to Berlin and several German cities, we will get to know the history and culture of Germany better. Joint leisure activities and sufficient free time to explore on your own round off our programme.
