The course aims at developing students’ communicative competences in English in diverse international working environments. Students will need to demonstrate that they are able to read and understand different kinds of specialist texts at an intermediate/upper-intermediate level, and to interact in the professional environment using appropriate registers. The course learning objectives have been established on the basis of Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR, B2 level). Emphasis will be placed on the acquisition of language structures and specialized vocabulary (business-managerial English), with the aim of providing students with the necessary tools to comprehend, study and re-elaborate a variety of texts pertaining to their field of studies. The course is also aimed at enhancing students’ awareness of the deep interconnection between language and culture and provide them with self-study language learning strategies.
