These courses are free of charge for University of Bremen students.

An intensive preparatory course for Italian is aimed at people planning a period of study in Italy. Another new course is the multilingual “Double Pack of Slavic Languages” (Slawische Sprachen im Doppelpack). Here, interested parties can learn the basics of Polish and Croatian at the same time. The similarities between the languages are used to facilitate learning in the sense of multilingualism didactics.
