In connection with the KLOs, this course aims at helping the students:

- to communicate efficiently in German, taking into account the multicultural and international features of their environment;

- to be curious and rigorous.

At the end of the year, the student should reach a European language level of A2+/B1- in German.

They should be able to understand sentences and frequently used expressions related to areas of most immediate relevance, to communicate in simple and routine tasks requiring a simple and direct exchange of information on familiar and routine matters and to describe aspects of their background and immediate environment in simple terms.
