|
| Course contents : | English course consisting of two levels: the intermediary or B1 level and the advanced or B2-C1 level.
The B1 course is a levelling course which mainly focuses on written English understanding while the advanced course aims to develop speaking and writing skills and introduce the vocabulary of psychology. |
|
| Course objective : | The purpose of the course is to consolidate and extend the students' general language understanding (and use), and to introduce the specific features of scientific English vocabulary and grammar (in the B2 course). |
|
| Prerequisites : | Considering its objectives, the course cannot be seen as an introduction to the basics of the English language. Therefore, it is vital for anyone taking the course to have a basic grounding in general English language and grammar (intermediate level). |
