KIE-32006 Spoken Communication in English, 3 cr
Additional information
This course is intended for students who have started their studies during the academic year 2012-13 or earlier and have not taken the course KIE-3200.
PLEASE NOTE! The selection of students is made on the basis of credits recorded at the time when sign-up closes and the target group. For this reason, you may have a place in the group even if the system shows that you are on the waiting list and vice-versa. The real selection order will be sent to everyone enrolled as a POP-message as soon as possible after the sign-up closes. However, there will be a delay of 1-2 working days. The group is formed during the first session, and to ensure your place in the group you are expected to be present punctually at the start of the session.
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.
