Curricular courses last one year of studies. Each course begins at the start of the II semester in the first year and finishes at the end of the I semester in the second year for a total of 72 hours of lessons.
Attendance at curricular courses is not compulsory but strongly recommended; attending courses is considered the most effective way of learning the language and preparing for the final exam.
Students enrolled in the course are encouraged to attend. An in-dept individual study is also recommended.
Active participation at curricular courses and individual study may award a maximum of 2 extra points which are included in the calculation of the exam grade (detailed information is given in the course syllabuses and exam requirements for each language and is available at www.unibocconieu/languagecentre in Language Teaching>Curricular activities).
The summarized course programs (course profiles) of the language modules are available at www.unibocconi.eu/courses.
