Fremdsprachendidaktik
Welcome to the Chair of Foreign Language Education of the FAU Erlangen-Nuremberg!
We are involved in all teacher education programmes for students aiming for a teaching degree in English, French, Italian and Spanish. For our students studying to become teachers we offer courses focusing on the teaching of language, literature and culture. In addition, we offer courses in first and second language acquisition in the two Master’s programmes “English Studies” and “Linguistics”.
