Information for incoming students

Willkommen at the Department of Political Science and Communication Studies (IPK)!

At the IPK, you can study various courses at the undergraduate and the graduate level. In political science, courses are offered in both German and English, with at least one course per module taught in English. In order to participate in courses in communication science, a B2 level of German proficiency is advisable.

Course catalogues will be published prior to the start of the semester on our website. Please note that course offerings vary each semester. Therefore, we will be unable to provide you with information regarding courses (e.g., for your Learning Agreements) until December (for the Spring term) or June (for the Fall term). As an orientation and to gain an overview of the general structure, we invite you to explore our current and past course catalogues.

After being admitted as an incoming student at the University of Greifswald, the International Office will serve as your primary point of contact, offering advice and support in preparation for and throughout your studies at the University of Greifswald. All administrative matters should be directed to them.

For any assistance related to course offerings and matters concerning your studies at our department, feel free to reach out to the departmental Erasmus Exchange Coordinators.
