# Sprachenzentrum

The **Sprachenzentrum** (officially the *Fremdsprachen- und Medienzentrum*) is the central hub for language and media education at the University of Greifswald.

## Role in General Studies
The center provides a significant portion of the language offerings available to students fulfilling their **General Studies** requirements. 

## Key Policies
- **Module Credit**: Courses taken here contribute to the "Languages" module of the General Studies curriculum.
- **Eligibility**: Only language courses that are not already required as part of a student's primary major can be credited toward General Studies.
- **Repetition**: Students may visit the "Languages" module multiple times, provided they are studying different languages each time.

The center operates under the *Gemeinsame Prüfungs- und Studienordnung für Bachelor-Teilstudiengänge und die General Studies der Philosophischen Fakultät 2016*.
