SPANISH BEGINNERS´ COURSE FOR FOREIGNERS

Course aimed at students with no previous knowledge of the Spanish language or with very basic knowledge, who cannot be suitably incorporated in the Language and Culture Courses. The aim is for students at the end of this course to have mastered the general rules and most common words so as to understand and make themselves understood in the most common communication situations.

SPANISH LANGUAGE AND CULTURE COURSES FOR FOREIGNERS

The courses have been programmed in different periods of length. They combine the teaching of the language, which is the main aim, with a broad insight into Spanish culture. Such courses are perfectly valid for students who are specialising in these questions, but are also appropriate for students not devoted specifically to the study of Spanish.

SPANISH INTENSIVE COURSES FOR UNIVERSITY EXCHANGE STUDENTS (SOCRATES/ERASMUS, TEMPUS...) 

The University of Oviedo participates to a large extent in University exchange programs (Socrates, Erasmus, Tempus, Cooperation Agreements, etc.) and offers these students back-up courses to aid their integration in the different host Faculties or Schools. Our aim is to make these students aware of the culture and social behavior in which they will have to integrate during their stay in Asturias.
