Course objectives
The aim of the course is to achieve the B2 level (based on the Common European Framework of Reference) of English language competence. Students can understand the main ideas of relatively complex text on both concrete and academic/professional topics, including discussions in their field of specialisation; can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible without strain for either party; can produce clear, detailed text on a wide range of academic/professional subjects and explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options. Listening: Students can understand extended speech and lectures and follow even complex lines of argument provided the topic is reasonably familiar. They can understand most media news and current affairs programmes. Reading: Students can read academic/professional texts without great difficulty. They can read articles and reports concerned with contemporary problems in which the writers adopt a particular stance or viewpoint. Spoken interaction: Students can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible. They can take an active part in discussion in familiar contexts, accounting for and sustaining their views. Written interaction: Students can write both formal and informal letters/emails, applications and cover letters. Spoken production: Students can present clear, detailed descriptions on a wide range of academic/professional subjects related to their field of study and interest. They can explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options. Students can write short academic texts, summaries and resumes. Written production: Students can write clear, detailed text on a wide range of subjects related to their field of study and interest. They can write a short academic text, summary, and resume passing on information or giving reasons in support of or against a particular point of view. Grammar accuracy: Students show a relatively high degree of grammatical control. They do not make errors which cause misunderstanding, and can correct most of their mistakes. They can also use some complex sentence forms. Grammar and language fluency: Students can produce stretches of language with a fairly even tempo; although they can be hesitant as they search for patterns and expressions, there are few noticeably long pauses. Coherence: Students can use a limited number of cohesive devices to link their utterances into clear, coherent discourse, though there may be some short pauses in a long contribution

The course is offered to students of any study field.
The capacity limit for the course is 220 student(s).
Current registration and enrolment status: enrolled: 0/220, only registered: 0/220, only registered with preference (fields directly associated with the programme): 0/220
Course objectives
The aim of the course is to achieve the B2 level (based on the Common European Framework of Reference) of English language competence. Students can understand the main ideas of relatively complex text on both concrete and academic/professional topics, including discussions in their field of specialisation; can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible without strain for either party; can produce clear, detailed text on a wide range of academic/professional subjects and explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options. Listening: Students can understand extended speech and lectures and follow even complex lines of argument provided the topic is reasonably familiar. They can understand most media news and current affairs programmes. Reading: Students can read academic/professional texts without great difficulty. They can read articles and reports concerned with contemporary problems in which the writers adopt a particular stance or viewpoint. Spoken interaction: Students can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible. They can take an active part in discussion in familiar contexts, accounting for and sustaining their views. Written interaction: Students can write both formal and informal letters/emails, applications and cover letters. Spoken production: Students can present clear, detailed descriptions on a wide range of academic/professional subjects related to their field of study and interest. They can explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options. Students can write short academic texts, summaries and resumes. Written production: Students can write clear, detailed text on a wide range of subjects related to their field of study and interest. They can write a short academic text, summary, and resume passing on information or giving reasons in support of or against a particular point of view. Grammar accuracy: Students show a relatively high degree of grammatical control. They do not make errors which cause misunderstanding, and can correct most of their mistakes. They can also use some complex sentence forms. Grammar and language fluency: Students can produce stretches of language with a fairly even tempo; although they can be hesitant as they search for patterns and expressions, there are few noticeably long pauses. Coherence: Students can use a limited number of cohesive devices to link their utterances into clear, coherent discourse, though there may be some short pauses in a long contribution

Written production: Students can write clear, detailed text on a wide range of subjects related to their field of study and interest. They can write a short academic text, summary, and resume passing on information or giving reasons in support of or against a particular point of view. Grammar accuracy: Students show a relatively high degree of grammatical control. They do not make errors which cause misunderstanding, and can correct most of their mistakes. They can also use some complex sentence forms. Grammar and language fluency: Students can produce stretches of language with a fairly even tempo; although they can be hesitant as they search for patterns and expressions, there are few noticeably long pauses. Coherence: Students can use a limited number of cohesive devices to link their utterances into clear, coherent discourse, though there may be some short pauses in a long contribution

Course objectives
The aim of the course is to achieve the B2 level (based on the Common European Framework of Reference) of English language competence. Students can understand the main ideas of relatively complex text on both concrete and academic/professional topics, including discussions in their field of specialisation; can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible without strain for either party; can produce clear, detailed text on a wide range of academic/professional subjects and explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options. Listening: Students can understand extended speech and lectures and follow even complex lines of argument provided the topic is reasonably familiar. They can understand most media news and current affairs programmes. Reading: Students can read academic/professional texts without great difficulty. They can read articles and reports concerned with contemporary problems in which the writers adopt a particular stance or viewpoint. Spoken interaction: Students can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible. They can take an active part in discussion in familiar contexts, accounting for and sustaining their views. Written interaction: Students can write both formal and informal letters/emails, applications and cover letters. Spoken production: Students can present clear, detailed descriptions on a wide range of academic/professional subjects related to their field of study and interest. They can explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options. Students can write short academic texts, summaries and resumes. Written production: Students can write clear, detailed text on a wide range of subjects related to their field of study and interest. They can write a short academic text, summary, and resume passing on information or giving reasons in support of or against a particular point of view. Grammar accuracy: Students show a relatively high degree of grammatical control. They do not make errors which cause misunderstanding, and can correct most of their mistakes. They can also use some complex sentence forms. Grammar and language fluency: Students can produce stretches of language with a fairly even tempo; although they can be hesitant as they search for patterns and expressions, there are few noticeably long pauses. Coherence: Students can use a limited number of cohesive devices to link their utterances into clear, coherent discourse, though there may be some short pauses in a long contribution
