Faculty of Navigation
English at the Faculty of Navigation is taught as part of the curriculum in the disciplines of Navigation and Transport and Logistics, both on full-time and part-time (extramural) degree courses.
The requirement for passing the course is a positive semester at the end of each semester. Students complete the course with a final examination - for students of Navigation, this comes at the end of the sixth semester, and for students of Transport and Logistics, at the end of the fifth semester.
The course content develops knowledge and language skills with an emphasis on specialist language, preparing future graduates for work at sea in the deck department, and on land in transport and logistics.
