German Studies in Freiburg is in high demand among international partners. Not only in the Erasmus programme, but also in non-European countries.

German Studies has a generous library where barrier-free digital work is possible. Access to the electronic databases is easily available via the university network. The German Studies practical rooms are equipped with multimedia facilities and very well designed for presentations. A linguistics laboratory offers opportunities for digital processing of audio and video data. There is equipment for eye-tracking studies available for students to use.

German Studies collaborates with linguists and literary scholars from other philologies, but also beyond the boundaries of the faculty, creating various interdisciplinary research initiatives. Special attention is currently being paid to the expansion of the Digital Humanities in the field of philology, for which a central DH lab has been set up at the faculty. In addition, there are third-party-funded projects in the form of individual projects on linguistic variation, multilingualism, language and cognition, literature of classical modernism and the Weimar Republic.

Diversity and sustainability topics are covered in both linguistics and literary studies courses.
