Study Regulations
The goal of instruction at the Centre for Language and Communication of Tallinn University of Technology is to grant learners, students, staff and members of the public sufficient linguistic and communicative proficiency that would enable them to follow developments in their professional field and operate effectively in an international environment.
The Centre is pleased to offer learners instruction in Estonian, English, German and Russian.
Instruction is provided according to the Study regulations of Tallinn University of Technology.
The courses can be:
- Compulsory (have to be passed to complete the curriculum)
- Elective (are selected by a student from among the courses in the curriculum)
- Optional (can be selected freely by students to broaden their horizons or to improve their professional knowledge and skills). As a rule, optional courses are self-paid, except for those marked free in the Rector’s directive for a specific academic year.
The courses are delivered in the form of practical classes.
The workload is as follows:
- 3.0 ECTS, 32 academic hours, contact classes once a week
- 6.0 ECTS, 64 academic hours, contact classes twice a week
The course syllabi are displayed in the Study Information System (ÕIS). The languages of instruction are Estonian and English.
The times and classrooms of practical classes are displayed in the academic timetable in the Study Information System (ÕIS).
Information about the courses offered during the current semester can be found on the website of the Centre for Language and Communication.
Classes start from the first week of the semester.
Students interested in learning languages at the Centre are kindly asked to attend the first class of the chosen course. Based on the lecturer's recommendations provided to the learners in the first class, they can declare the course in ÕIS (Study Information System).
Student attendance in the first class is of utmost importance since based on the information received (the number of the students, level of their language proficiency, etc.) language groups for courses will be formed and activated.
