Seniors' advice: Ramjas College 1-Year Foreign Language Course — Which language is best if I plan to do Masters abroad
?
?
​
Hey everyone,
I’m planning to enroll in the 1-year part-time Certificate Course in Foreign Languages offered by Ramjas College (DU).

My end goal is to pursue my Master’s degree abroad, and I want to pick a language that will actually complement my higher education plans and visa/job prospects, rather than just picking one randomly.
The language options offered are:
German
Spanish
French
Italian
Chinese
Korean
I’d love to get feedback from seniors, current DU language students, or alumni who went abroad for Masters:
How manageable is the workload? Since classes run a few days a week, is it easy to balance with regular degree coursework/prep?
Quality of teaching at Ramjas: Are the instructors from the respective DU departments (like DGRS / DEAS) good for building a solid foundation?

Language Selection vs. Country:
German: Thinking about tuition-free / low-cost public universities in Germany. Is A1/A2 from DU enough to start, or should I aim for Goethe side-by-side?
French / Spanish: How strong are these for Europe (France, Spain, Switzerland) or North America (Canada/US)?
Korean / Chinese: Are these worth considering primarily for East Asian government scholarships (like GKS for Korea)?
Which language did you choose, how was your experience at Ramjas, and which language/country combo would you recommend for higher studies?
Thanks in advance!
