This is the first of two courses at the CEFR C1 level which prepare students for the UNIcert III English for Academic Purposes certificate exam that is held at the end of the second course, UNIcert III/2 English for Natural Sciences.This course is designed for science students looking to enhance their language skills.

Special focus will be given to selected areas of vocabulary and grammar, laying a solid foundation for independent study.

Additionally, we will look at texts and listen to lectures, speeches, etc. on field-related topics and on topics of interest to the class.
