Step 1: Watch the video 'Choosing a language'
Why do you study a language as a European Studies student and how do you make that choice? What languages can you choose from and what do you have to gain from that ultimately? Our lecturer and student will tell you all about it in just a few minutes.

Step 2: Which language are you interested in? Fill in the questionnaire
Have you already thought about your own language selection? Some languages are more difficult to learn than others, as a result of which the final level of the languages may differ. You are not allowed to choose your own native language. Fill in the questionnaire via the link below and find out which options suit you best. After completing the questionnaire, choose a maximum of 2 languages about which you would like to have more information during the online language fair on 4 June, 16:30-18:00.
