German Courses for Refugees

At the University of Göttingen, we offer German language courses, preparing refugees for university. The University of Göttingen, together with the Institute for Intercultural Communication (IIK), offers an intensive programme of courses in German as a Foreign Language for refugees who want to study at the University of Göttingen. The programme prepares students for the DSH exam, a prerequisite for admission to the university.

Classes are not only attended by refugees, but also by participants who do not have a refugee background. As part of this programme, assistance is available for participants requiring homework support or advice on how to learn a new language. The courses are funded by the DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service) through the programme Integra – Integrating Refugees in Higher Education.
