You have to complete numerous modules as part of your Bachelor's degree programme. This includes the professionalisation module (PM) in the first year of study. In order to successfully complete this module, you must take three courses: Two English courses and one soft-skillscourse from the action-related competences.
You must register for the language courses according to your language level. If you do not know your language level, you can use online placement tests from publishers.
Please note that your learning progress depends largely on choosing the right language level.
Attention:
English courses for students in the Bachelor of Social Sciences
Graduates of the placement test who score below B2 cannot yet take the English courses as part of the PM. In this case, they must take a language course corresponding to the level in order to prove the B2 language level in the course of their studies and to be able to take the two B2 language courses required for the module. These are: 1) either "Grammar Refresher B2" or "English for University Studies B2" or "Reading and Writing B2" and 2) English for Social Scientists B2. One of the courses under 1) must always be passed before attending 2).
Graduates of the placement test who are graded B2 or reach this level after attending the course can attend the English courses as part of the PM. These are:
1) either "Grammar Refresher B2" or "English for University Studies B2" or "Reading and Writing B2" and
2) "English for Social Scientists B2".
One of the courses under 1) must always be passed before attending 2).
Graduates of the placement test with level C1 and higher do not have to attend a general English course before attending the English course of the PM ("English for Social Scientists C1C2"). After passing this course, you will receive the credits allocated to the course. However, we still recommend that you attend further English courses.
