Language Courses
You also have the opportunity to take language courses. You can cover the entire 6 ECTS of your support elective credits with the language courses.
- Courses from your study tree: You can take a course at the TUM Language Center. In your study tree in TUMonline you will find courses that can be recognized for your curriculum.
- German courses on site: Or you can take a German course (B1.1 in the winter semester or B1.2 in the summer semester with 3 ECTS each) directly with us on site at the Heilbronn campus (module number CITHN50006). These courses are offered irregularly. Please note: At the TUM Campus Heilbronn, German courses are also offered by external language schools, which you are welcome to attend. However, we cannot accept credits for these courses. Please contact our Student Service Point if you are interested in these courses.
- Courses at the TUM Language Center:
- You can also independently search for courses at the TUM Language Center and take them. Please note: All language courses at the TUM Language Center - with the exception of English courses of all levels - can be recognized for your curriculum.
- Please make sure that the courses are feasible for you. This means they should either be online or, if you register for a course in Munich or Garching: it should be logistically possible for you to join them there.
