Brief description

The module is intended for students with an AS level (or equivalent) in German, an increasing number of whom will be entering university from 2002. It is tailored to the specific linguistic competence of these students, providing revision and consolidation of AS level work, while it aims to move them forward towards a high 'A' level competency. Together with GE11520, the module is designed to stimulate the number of students following an Honours degree in German.
