Language Courses at TU Dortmund University
The Foreign Languages Department of the Center for Higher Education (ZHB), in cooperation with the International Office, offers a German language course program for international doctoral students and postdocs as well as for accompanying spouses and partners at the levels A1, A2 and B1.

In the university context, the English language allows to get along very well. However, for everyday life outside the academic context, a basic knowledge of German is essential. Therefore, you are welcome to take advantage of German courses and our language café and make shopping, getting to know colleagues or traveling within Germany a lot easier.
