This course aims at developing and practising English skills and trains in all areas of the language. Students learn to cope with study-related texts. Students will obtain practice in accuracy and fluency in speaking by sharing their opinions and ideas, having presentations, active discussions and debates. In addition, there will also be written tasks for each unit and the student will be provided with some "tools" for a more systematic approach to professional and academic writing. Students are expected to participate oral presentations throughout the course and written examination at the end of the course.
