French

There are a total of four separate economic Français Economique courses (A-B-C-D) within the scope of the Economic Français Economique Credit-point Courses.  Only one course (A or B or C or D) is offered on a rotating basis each semester.

According to the Common European Reference Framework on Languages (CEFR), the target of this course corresponds to level C1.1. The Business French course ‘Upper Intermediate’ provides a good preparation for this course. 

  • Bachelor students in their study year of consolidation and specialization (s. PO §9 paragraph 5).
  • Online enrolment for the chosen course and the qualifying test during the stipulated enrolment time (02.04.2024, 9am until 11.04.2024, 12pm). Enrolment is on a ‘first come first served basis’. After the online enrolment for French for Economists Credit-Point Courses has ended, a later e-mail enrolment is only possible for students of our Faculty who have in the past already successfully completed one of our French for Economists Credit-point Courses, and, of course, if there are any vacant places available on these courses.
  • A pass in the Bachelor Qualifying Test which takes place at the beginning of each semester, or a pass grade in the final examinations of a previous Bachelor Credit-Point Course in French for Economists.
