Basic Langauge Skills Unit

The Basic Language Skills unit is entrusted with the responsibility of delivering foreign language education by the directives set forth by the Higher Education Board across all faculties, schools, and vocational departments within our university. In addition to the essential core language curriculum, this unit offers an array of specialized language courses, encompassing prominent languages like German, French, Russian, and Arabic.

Moreover, the unit extends its services to include tailored courses such as English for Specific Purposes and English for Academic Purposes, strategically designed to cater to the unique linguistic demands of various disciplines within the university. This holistic approach underscores the department's commitment to equipping students with not only a comprehensive understanding of foreign languages but also the linguistic tools essential for success in their academic pursuits and future professional endeavours.
