Since April 1st, 2017 (summer semester) it is possible to obtain up to 6 credit points in the area of study achievements (e.g. seminars, labs – in German “Studienleistungen”) within the master programme “Distributed Software Systems” through German language courses.

Our objective with this new regulation is to enable students to learn German and to improve the process of integration in Germany.

Offered courses

In the winter term 2017/18, one level A1 German course and one Level A2 course will be offered. We will inform you about the future continuation during the winter term 2017/18.

Credit transfer of previous German language courses

Previously passed German language courses up to 6 credit points can be transferred into the Distributed Software Systems programme under the following conditions:

• Transferable are all modules that have been obtained at TU Darmstadt and include a final grade.
• NOT transferable are language courses, which have been obtained, for example, at the Goethe-Institute or private language schools/institutes.
• The area where the modules can be transferred to is „study achievements (e.g. seminars and labs – German “Studienleistungen”)“.
• The transfer has to be requested in written form until March 31st, 2018 (limitation period, no extension possible). After March 31st, 2018 no request will be accepted.
