Language Programs

Although located in Germany, Jacobs University is an English-speaking academic institution with internationality and multiculturalism as its most distinctive features. Such a mixture provides Jacobs students with great opportunities for acquiring an intercultural experience in a multilingual community. The university is pleased to offer you help in acquiring necessary language skills for your academic work, better integration into your host country, or just in satisfying your linguistic zeal!

All language courses are only offered for Jacobs students and staff members.

Students can also pursue language studies in over 20 languages, at their own convenience, at the University Language Lab that is located in the basement of the IRC at the Campus Center. Six multimedia computers including headsets give access to a wealth of language learning software for either self directed learning or learning as a complement to Jacobs University's language courses.

The IRC offers this service in close cooperation with the Fremdsprachenzentrum der Hochschulen im Lande Bremen. The service is available during regular IRC / library opening hours.
