KIE-32036 Spoken communication in English/BIO, 3 cr

Additional information

This Spoken Communication in English course is offered in the first year of the bachelor’s degree programme for LTT (BIO) and will take place during periods 3 and 4. Places will be given to first year students enrolled on the bachelor’s degree programme for LTT (BIO). When a course is over-subscribed, i.e. there are more sign-ups than places on the course, then we enrol the required number of students according to the sign-up time and target group. Students on the sign-up / waiting list have to be present on the first day of the course to be sure of retaining their place.
