Your study programme

 

Our Multilingual Master offers you the unique possibility to take courses in linguistics and literary studies in up to nine different languages and to specialise in one scientific discipline in one or two languages. The programme is built up of three components: the compulsory courses, a specialised profile and the choice to study in one language or two languages. The three components allow for maximum flexibility in the programme. 

Please consult the course lists to choose the profile and language(s) and indicate your choice in your application and motivation letter. The choice must be made before the interview. Changing profile afterwards is only possible in few special conditions.

If your bachelor's degree is not in the field of linguistics and literary studies, it is possible to enrol in a tailor-made preparatory programme consisting of bachelor's courses in linguistics and literary studies. Find out more in Admission and enrolment.
