For those of you with a keen ear for languages the University of Glasgow has a dedicated Language Centre on Level 1 of the Hetherington Building which houses superb language facilities. You are entitled to join the Audio-Visual Library, which contains a wide variety of language aids. A returnable deposit will be charged for use of library facilities. The Hetherington Building receives daily newspapers and weekly journals from a wide variety of countries. In addition, its satellite receivers allow access to television broadcasts from around the globe. You are entitled to book time at one of the library’s numerous television monitors, which are all supplied with headphones. For EUROSUD, there are special arrangements for students to undertake one language course provided by either Short Courses or the School of Modern Languages and Cultures while in Glasgow (Semester 1). The languages available are English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Arabic.

At UAM, EUROSUD students can benefit from a 50% reduction in the enrolment fee for the Spanish course for International students, offered by the Language Service. The cost would be 65 EUR for the first semester. For the second semester the cost will be 130 EUR (no reduction applies). These courses are fully covered for EUROSUD students who, if interested, should enrol and pay for the language course, then request reimbursement from the Madrid team.

The other language courses such as English, French, Italian and Portuguese have a cost of 130 EUR per year (no reduction applies). Please note these courses are only offered annually, so students going to UAM during their second semester will not be able to take these courses.

In addition, the Faculty of Philosophy and Arts offers courses in Turkish, Persian and Arabic. Those enrolled in EUROSUD can attend as listeners, during the official timetable.  If you are interested in these courses, we recommend that you inform the Madrid team well in advance to allow them to send the information to the lecturers of these courses.

At LUISS, EUROSUD students are offered a course in Italian (non-credit-bearing). Normally the course starts in September (end of the month) and students must express interest at the beginning of September to attend the course.

At NKUA Greek language classes are offered by the Greek Language School (Διδασκαλείο Ελληνικής Γλώσσας) on the university campus. Students attend every day, 5 days a week, from 9 a.m. to 12 (over three months) and pay 350 EUR. There is also a 5-week summer course in June and early July which costs 270 EUR. Among the papers the students will need to submit in order to be accepted on the course is their degree certificate certified as genuine by the Greek consulate in the country where the degree was issued or by the consulate of that country in Greece, stamped with the Hague Apostille and with an official translation into Greek from either a Greek consulate abroad, the translation service of the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs or a Greek lawyer who has been certified by the Lawyers’ Association. French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Turkish are all taught at the Foreign Language School, also on the university campus. Usually, students are offered two 3-hour classes per week which cost 300 EUR. Language courses at NKUA will not be credit bearing for EUROSUD students.
