Informazioni:
A partire dall'A.A. 2005/06 il lettorato di lingua inglese viene organizzato per livelli di competenza anziché per anno di iscrizione e non si hanno più quindi esercitazioni di lingua per gli studenti del I, II o III anno, ma gruppi individuati secondo il livello di competenza (riconducibili ai livelli del Quadro Comune Europeo).
Prima dell'inizio delle lezioni, alle matricole sarà somministrato un test di lingua che permetterà di stabilire i livelli di competenza linguistica di ciascuno studente. I risultati dei suddetti test permetteranno di costituire delle classi di studio omogenee. In considerazione del fatto che il sistema scolastico italiano assicura un insegnamento diffuso della lingua inglese si richiede alle matricole per tale lingua una conoscenza di partenza che si attesti sul livello A2 del Quadro Comune Europeo (per consultare gli indicatori linguistici per ogni livello Cfr. www.uniurb.it/cla/corsi_di_lingua/quadro_europeo.php). Non sono previsti pertanto corsi intensivi iniziali in lingua inglese e l'eventuale debito formativo dovrà essere colmato dallo studente autonomamente.
Dopo il test di piazzamento, ogni studente sarà inserito in un gruppo adeguato alle sue conoscenze e potrà passare ad un livello superiore previa indicazione del docente e/o superamento dell'esame (relativo al livello frequentato). Si ricorda che per il I anno la prova scritta sarà adeguata al livello B1, per il II anno al livello B2 e per il III al livello C1.
Le prove scritte del corso di laurea magistrale sono equiparabili ai livelli C1 avanzato (I anno) e C2 (II anno).
Per informazioni relative alle modalità d'esame e per eventuali difficoltà nel superamento delle prove scritte rivolgersi a:

Per il CL1, 2, 3 e Percorso occidentale:

The coursework will be divided into two parts; students will be required to participate in the classes taught by both Cullen and Di Staola, and to complete the work assigned by each CEL on time.
Intercultural contexts of the English Speaking World - What do Language, Culture and Business Have to Do with Anything Anyway? (Dott. Cullen)
Points of departure and objectives: Much time will pass before scholars understand to an acceptable degree the nuances of relationships between language itself, the peculiarities of the changing English language, and the changing functions of culture in globalizing societies. What are the relationships between language and culture? What are the relationships between English and globalisation, and globalising cultures? What approaches can scholars take to identify these relationships and make sense of them? How do language and culture interact with economic behaviour in globalised business arenas? No small beer here!
The aim of this course is simple - to help students form intellectual frameworks that allow the construction of independent approaches to these questions. Lessons are structured around questions, not data, and success will be measured in terms of methodological approaches to the subject matter.

Materials are available on the CD handed out to students during the first week of class - after which they will be available on the LM2 blog. www.incubu.wordpress.com. Students who cannot come to lessons are expected to make weekly contributions by posting comments on the blog. Written work is due AT LEAST 10 days prior to the beginning of the exam session in which the student expects to take the exam.

The coursework will be done on a project basis. Students who do not attend the class will be responsible for preparing their projects outside of class and submitting them by the established deadlines. Additional information may be made available to students via dispensa and/or on-line.

(1) Doing long term projects which will include (but not be limited to) doing research, gathering data, performing data analysis, production and analysis of graphs, development of marketing plans and advertisement strategies, promotion;
