About the Module

MitSprache is a module of the Faculty of Arts and Humanities at the University of Bonn, which is offered by the Department of Studies and Teaching of the Dean's Office in cooperation with the Caritas Association for the City of Bonn. The module was developed in 2016 for students of the Faculty of Arts and Humanities. Due to the great demand from students and thanks to the support of the Faculty of Arts and Humanities, the University's Office for Equal Opportunities and Diversity, the Bonn Caritas Association and other cooperation partners, the course has been open to students from all faculties since the summer semester 2021.

Content and Structure of the Module

The module consists of a seminar phase and a practical phase. The seminar phase is organised by the students together with the new immigrants. The practical phase is organised by the students. In the seminar phase, students acquire basic language didactic knowledge in the field of "German as a second language" as well as socio-cultural background knowledge on the topics of migration and flight. In cooperation with new immigrants, they work together on the topics of study, training and work and are also sensitised to dealing with different forms of discrimination. The subsequent practical phase serves to put the skills acquired in the seminar into practice in the form of voluntary work. This can take place either at the Caritasverband für die Stadt Bonn e.V. or at another charitable organisation or non-profit initiative. 6 ECTS can be recognised for successful participation in the seminar and practical phase. Alternatively, participation can be recognised as part of the Certificate of Intercultural Competence. More information can be found on the certificate page.

Accompanying Meetings and Theme Meetings

In connection with the MitSprache module, accompanying and themed meetings are offered during the semester. The accompanying meetings serve as an exchange of experiences for former participants of the module. The themed meetings offer students of the module the opportunity to further their education in the areas of "German as a second language" and refugees and migration.

You will receive more information about the next accompanying and theme meetings by email after participating in the seminar.
