In this course students develop linguistic competence in spoken, listening and written German; they also further develop their awareness of German culture and will learn various study skills as a preparation for work and further study. Authentic German materials including magazines, newspapers, books, internet are used. Many companies require skilled linguists and they actively seek to recruit students with good qualifications in a language. From ski-instructors to lawyers, football managers to holiday reps, teachers to air hostesses, a good qualification in a language can improve your job prospects to an employer. Many Universities also offer study abroad for a year when students can use their language skills in a working environment. This is usually the students’ best part of the course, providing the chance to live abroad, and become fully immersed in the culture.
