The activities can in principle be financially supported by Erasmus. A full list of current offers can be found here.

UNIC Online Language Modules

UNIC is not only an international alliance, but also a multilingual one. To grow closer together on a linguistic level as well, UNIC now offers 10 free online language learning modules. These courses provide first-hand knowledge of the 10 UNIC languages, as well as insights into the universities, cities and cultures of the partner universities. All UNIC online language modules are free digital self-study courses for beginners, except for the English language module, which requires prior knowledge at B1/B2 level. It is possible to either complete the entire language module (15 to 30 hours on average, depending on the language) or select from the content according to your own interest. Each partner university offers its own language modules in the e-learning system of the respective university.
