Russian Courses & Learning Opprtunities

At Zessko, students from various degree programmes can take Russian courses at levels A1 to C2 according to the CEFR, acquire useful knowledge and skills in intercultural communication, and receive language learning advice tailored to their individual needs.

Students in the Faculty of Philosophy complete a part of their practical language training in Russian at Zessko. Students from all faculties can take UNIcert®-accredited Russian courses and thus acquire key skills in the Foreign Language I and Foreign Language II modules. The programme also includes various courses in the Intercultural Communication module.

All Russian courses are offered in both the winter and summer semesters if there is sufficient demand. The registration can be done via PULS. Students who have previous knowledge of Russian and have not yet taken any Russian courses at the University of Potsdam are asked to inform themselves in good time and to take the diagnostic placement test at the beginning of the semester before registering for courses.
