Learning Outcomes
The English course is at a B1/B2 level of the European Council's Common European Framework of Reference for the English language. As such, the course is designed to familiarize students with vocabulary, grammar and syntax with emphasis on the four primary language skills: reading, speaking, listening and writing. The course seeks to provide students with true hands-on skills that can be applied in their future career paths.
Prerequisites
Students are expected to have some minimum knowledge of English vocabulary, verbs and grammar upon entering the course. All students in possession of a B2 English certificate recognized at an international level can request the conversion of course credits based on this qualification. The conversion will in turn be assessed and left to the discretion of the course instructor. Students can download the form, to be filled out and given to the course instructor, at the following web address:
