Most of the courses/lectures at the Institute of Sociology are held in German language. At the Faculty of Educational and Social Sciences, however, there are many courses in the disciplines of politics, communication science and educational science which would be interesting for the discipline of sociology as well. In all courses held in German language at the Institute of Sociology Erasmus students are allowed to effect their performance (essays or exams) in English language.
