The course Reading in Academic Contexts for Students with Swedish as a Second Language or Swedish as a Foreign Language focuses on reading and text analysis in academic contexts. In the course, you will analyse and discuss texts of various lengths regarding structure and content, thereby developing your vocabulary and reading strategies to enhance your ability to comprehend different types of texts and large amounts of text.
The course Oral Communication in Academic Contexts for Students with Swedish as a Second Language or Swedish as a Foreign Language addresses communicative competence in spoken Swedish, such as pronunciation, fluency, grammatical correctness, rhetoric and presentation skills.

The course Writing in Academic Contexts for Students with Swedish as a Second Language or Swedish as a Foreign Language provides tools for improving your writing skills in terms of Swedish language grammar, strategic vocabulary building, development of a formal vocabulary and awareness of text structures.
