The FFA for Cultural Studies programme

The FFA for Cultural Studies programme imparts subject-specific knowledge and language skills in the area of cultural studies and international relations, which are important for a later career in these areas. This FFA programme is a compulsory part of a number of degree programmes of the University.

You must have good general command of the relevant language. This will be imparted in the Foundation courses (Grundstufe 1 and 2).
If you have prior knowledge of the language, you will need to take a placement test before starting the semester.

The subject-specific language programmes consist of three stages or modules:

• FFA Intermediate
• FFA Advanced 1
• FFA Advanced 2

Each module concludes with a written and an oral examination.

FFP certificates for students enrolled in cultural studies-related degree programmes are issued on request by Mr Wolfgang Killer of the Language Centre Examinations Office.
