Language Support
Improve your language skills ahead of your study abroad experience.
Whether or not you need to speak the language of your host country depends on your programme and destination.
If you're studying in the language of your host country, it's expected that you have sufficient knowledge of that language. Some of our partner institutions offer a number of modules in English. Therefore, fluency in the language is not always necessary. It depends on where you choose to study.
Our Language Resource Centre can help you improve your existing language skills or learn a new language.
Many of our partner universities offer beginner-level classes in the native language. We encourage you to sign up for these during your exchange to develop your linguistic skills and help you settle into your host country.
Our partner universities in China, Japan, and Latin America teach almost exclusively in their native language. To go to one of these universities, you usually have to be studying one of these languages as part of your degree programme.
