The UC aims to provide students with opportunities to consolidate existing knowledge of the English language and acquire new knowledge. The manuals “Business Result Pre-Intermediate” and “Essential Grammar in Use” will serve as supporting teaching material. Theoretical-practical classes will address professional and organizational contexts, through topics related to the activities, structures and functioning of organizations/companies. In this way, the aim is to adapt the UC contents to the general scope of the study cycle, with the aim of turning English into a tool for the students' professional future.
