Cultural Communication 2

A very good knowledge of English as an economic and business language is indispensable in a globally networked working world. In this module, students expand their foreign language skills in speaking, listening comprehension, reading comprehension and writing with a business/professional focus, such as business meetings, advertising and marketing, company start-ups and business ethics. Students train skills in writing an agenda, describing charts, writing a press release, which enables them to communicate confidently, effectively and stylistically appropriately in English in international work processes after completing the module.
