Intercultural workshop

The course provides the students with theoretical perspectives on intercultural encounters, as well as prepares them for such experiences on a practical level. Students study the concepts of culture, multiplicity, multi-nationality, ethnicity and cross-cultural understanding, being exposed to a variety of perspectives and voices present in the modern global society. The workshop is conducted over the backdrop of the specificity of Polish culture, and as such, is also intended to help the students find themselves in the reality of their host country for the duration of their stay.

2 ECTS

Polish language and culture

The aim of the course is to provide the students with the basic grasp of the structures and vocabulary of the Polish language, thus enabling them to successfully communicate on a range of fundamental topics in everyday life. The course is also intended to place the language skills against the background of Polish culture, thus allowing the students to explore Polish cultural context and customs.
