Programme description
As citizens of the world, we need good English skills and intercultural awareness. English is a world language and has a central role in education, work, communication, leisure, and for personal growth. The One Year Programme provides a high degree of English proficiency as well as insights into how language works, is used, is acquired, changes, and how we process language cognitively. In addition, the One Year Programme introduces different cultural aspects of the English-speaking world. The programme emphasises active student participation with ample opportunities to practice and improve a wide range of English skills. Classes will be delivered online only.
