The orientation towards linguistic responsiveness and communication is a defining feature of all language teaching events at ZEMS.
In addition to qualifying degrees, all instructors at ZEMS have language proficiency at the level of a native speaker as well as extensive experience in the field of foreign language didactics.
ZEMS is currently cooperating with partner universities in China, France, Poland, Russia and Spain and offers exchange for language acquisition and tandem projects with students from our partner universities.
In addition to teaching, the accompanied research on the acquisition of foreign languages, language use and language needs also play an important role at ZEMS. ZEMS cooperates with the departments of German as a foreign and technical language and pedagogical psychology at the TU Berlin. In addition, we publish our own research.
Linguistic and cultural knowledge is essential for an internationally established and visible university – ZEMS’s courses are an indispensable contribution in this field. The specific profile of ZEMS is to focus on communication in science and technology in different languages.
