The Arabic language programme lasts one-academic year and consists of two academic terms: Fall Term and Spring Term. During one term, a student can complete one language level. Upon completing the academic year – given all requirements met - a student receives a language certificate, which states the language proficiency level completed and the grade received.
The ANNS center focuses on teaching Modern Standard Arabic (MSA). It implements a wide range of modern teaching strategies: communicative approach, learner-centered education, digitally enriched education, etc. Courses offered at the Center aim at developing all communicative skills (speaking, listening, reading, writing) in addition to providing wide knowledge of Arabic literature (classic and modern) and culture.
At the beginning of an academic year, all students have to sit for a placement test. The placement test covers all language skills (reading, listening, writing, speaking) and aims at determining the language level of new students.
