Language barriers, however, can often make successful communication and integration on campus very difficult, as well as prevent maximum progress in studies.

Since the beginning of 2006, the solution to this problem is finally here: DUO, the Online University of German. Thanks to an offer provided in cooperation with the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), Erasmus students can now start preparing for language and life in Germany before even leaving home – at absolutely no cost. Our specialised DUO courses are not only an easy yet extremely effective way of learning German, but also allow learners to find out more about their subjects and make valuable contacts in virtual classes – all at the same time. Qualified, specially trained DUO tutors offer individual guidance for all learners, promote maximum learning progress and also assign ECTS credits in selected courses.
