All IMPRS-TRUST students can take our German and English courses in Saarbrücken. These courses have different levels of proficiency and are free of charge for everyone meeting our course requirements.
Please check our Course Requirements.
During the semester, classes take place once or twice a week. Please take a look at the current timetable.
New students can join either a German complete beginners course or a more advanced course in German or English, whereas the latter is only possible if these students take the placement test held at the start of the semester.
In Winter Semester 2020/2021 all of our courses will be offered online. Participants will receive more detailed information after registration for their course.
