The aim of the course is to give students who are complete beginners or who have had very little contact with the language an opportunity to cover ways of dealing with practical matters.  This includes the introduction and consolidation of vocabulary, grammar, morphology, syntax and phonetics.  On completion of the course students should be able to communicate in and understand Portuguese on many practical everyday matters related to various aspects of Portuguese culture. Cultural awareness will be developed.  Language learning skills, including autonomous learning and how to approach authentic material, will be enhanced.  Some transferable skills will also be covered.

This involves the consideration, amongst other things, of (a) the definition and requirements of a valid marine insurance contract, (b) the conclusion of the contract and the duty of utmost good faith (duty of fair presentation), (c) the categories of marine insurance contract, (d) the parties and their agents, (e) the principle of indemnity, (f) coverage focussing on marine and war risks, (g) the terms of the contract, (h) the measure of indemnity, and (i) the principles of subrogation and contribution.
