As the semester at WHU is divided into two quarters, there are courses only taught in Quarter I or in Quarter II but there are also courses running through both quarters.

Workload

We consider the regular workload for exchange students in all programs to be 7 to 9 courses per semester. We request you to take at least 4 courses. However, you should discuss your schedule of courses with your home university.

Your home university will decide which courses are applicable to your program of study and the number of courses required for a full semester. Please note that about 75 % of our undergraduate course and 100 % of our graduate courses are taught in English.

German Classes

WHU offers a free intensive German course running through the semester. Exchange students have the possibility to choose between 4 levels, from absolute beginners to advanced. The course is worth 5 credits.
