The course Spanish Language 3 consists of a theoretical half-year learning module and of an annual coursework. The overall objective of the course is to introduce the students to the discourse analysis and to prepare them for a C1 competence (CEFR) in Spanish language. Learning outcomes are assessed through a structured evaluation.
