Semitic Studies is a linguistic and literary discipline that deals with the study of Semitic languages. You will gain a profound insight into these by learning a Semitic language as well as specialised linguistic and philological method modules. This minor subject can be combined particularly well with major subjects in which a Semitic language such as Arabic, Akkadian or Hebrew is taught.

An integral part of the degree course is the MarSkills programme, in which you acquire attractive and future-oriented key skills (see https://www.uni-marburg.de/de/fb09/igs/arbeitsgruppen/sprechwissenschaft/marskills/was-ist-marskills).
