Study program structure and content
Your studies begin with an intensive Italian course – no prior knowledge required. At the same time, you deepen your existing French skills from school through practical language exercises as well as courses in cultural and literary studies.
Throughout your studies, students acquire solid skills in linguistics and literary studies. They learn various methods for analyzing linguistic, literary, and cultural phenomena and apply them in a practical context.
The study program is complemented by internships, excursions, and study abroad opportunities, which provide you with important career-relevant skills – for example, for work in education and culture or in the media and communications sector.

In the BA program in Romance Studies, a study abroad experience at an Italian- or French-speaking university is strongly recommended. The program maintains partnerships with renowned universities, for example in Florence, Catania, Lyon, and Lille. Our subject coordinators support you in planning and organizing your stay, provide information on funding options, and ensure that the credits earned abroad are recognized.
While an internship, whether in your home country or abroad, is not mandatory, it offers a valuable addition to your studies. We assist you in integrating suitable internships into your study program and regularly offer specific information sessions for Romance Studies students.
