That is only partly true. In the course of the BA programme Anglistik/Amerikanistik, students do take advanced language classes, in order to obtain a fluent and stylistically appropriate use of English. However, a very good command of English (at least B2 level) is expected from any prospective student.
No. At the beginning of their course, all students must take a placement test (Oxford Placement test), where their proficiency in English is evaluated. Depending on their result, some classes can only be attended at a later point in their studies. Regular students of the BA Anglistik/Amerikanistik programme, need to reach 65 points in order to be admitted to the module examination at the end of their first year. Students with results below that mark are given the chance to resit the test on 15 January each year.
The Anglistik/Amerikanistik programme at the University of Erfurt finishes with a Bachelor of Arts. This is an internationally recognised degree that allows to persue further studies at any university. Also the University of Erfurt offers several suitable master programmes.
Insofar your acquired credits correspond in content and extent to the part of a module, the credits may be recognised. The current Subject Commissioner should be consulted for the recognition of credits.
The Subject Commissioner (Studienrichtungsbeauftragte) is responsible for the recognition of national and international academic achievements.
In order to have their classes validated, students need to download and fill out the form provided by Studium und Lehre. This needs to be presented together with the respective records of achievement (certificate with title of class, name of teacher, credits and grade as well as module allocation).
For a BA in Anglistik/Amerikanistik from the University of Erfurt, a minimum of 60 credits needs to be obtained at Erfurt, including a minimum of 30 credits in the major subject.
