  • allow students to follow oral presentations in English, take accurate notes, and synthesize them,
  • allow students to present scientific information in correct and consistent English.
Prerequisites :  English Level Two (taught in the second year of the Bachelor's Degree in Sciences).
Organization :  The in-class course is taught to 25 to 35 students for two hours each week (45 hours in all).

Together, preparation, active participation, oral presentations and written assignments during the year account for 40 to 50% of the final grade.
