Do you have previous knowledge of Chinese and would like to continue your language studies as part of the MA Global East Asia master's program in the coming winter or summer term? Then please take the placement test.

For the winter semester 2025/26, the placement test for students with prior knowledge of Chinese will take place on September 16 at 10:15 AM. Please be at the building at Fabeckstrasse 23-25 (14195 Berlin) on the second floor of the Institute for Chinese Studies on time, from where we will walk together to the test room.

The test takes about 60-90 minutes and consists of three parts, testing your listening (Section 1) and writing (Section 2, filling in the blanks and Section 3, writing a text in Chinese).

Please register in advance with Mr. Dominik Weihrauch at dominik.weihrauch@fu-berlin.de (+49 30 838 61923 ). Please let him know in advance about your previous Chinese courses (e.g. submit transcripts or language certificates together with the registration).

For those who will not be in Berlin by this date, a second placement test will be offered on October 6 at 10:15 AM. Kindly notify Mr. Weihrauch of the day you wish to take part in the test.
