Annotation
A two-semester orientation phase within this course allows on the one hand, the opportunity to gain an initial insight into the specialist cultures of the Faculty of Arts of the University of Potsdam and on the other hand, to acquire the necessary language levels in Philology for the Bachelor's program. Thereafter, you can switch to another Philological degree program at the University of Potsdam (the prerequisite for admission-restricted degree programs is admission to the desired subject).
