The aim of the course is to enable students who already have a good knowledge of Portuguese to acquire a better advanced fluency in the language. Students should be able to communicate in everyday-life and in specific situations within Portuguese speaking countries (different types of discourse, register). Students will be able to converse with native speakers, follow debates and give presentations relating to their degree as well as discussing current issues (local and worldwide) using more complex and linguistically accurate structures. Cultural awareness will be further developed and raised within a European/global context. Language learning skills, including autonomous learning and how to approach authentic material, will be further enhanced. Various transferable skills relating to students' degree programmes will also be covered and the confidence in using these skills in a variety of situations will be improved.
