EXPAND YOUR EDUCATION THROUGH INTERDISCIPLINARY COURSES TAUGHT IN ENGLISH<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Office of General Education, Archives, and Culture, together with the Office of International Relations, invites UDP students and international students to take part in a renewed selection of interdisciplinary courses taught in English, offered as part of UDP\u2019s General Education curriculum.<\/p>\n

These courses are part of UDP\u2019s commitment to global, cross-cutting, interdisciplinary, and transdisciplinary education. Through them, students will engage with contemporary issues from local and global perspectives, strengthen their participation in academic conversations in English, and interact with peers from different academic, cultural, and international backgrounds.<\/p>\n

These courses are not designed as exclusively disciplinary courses, nor are they simply language courses. Their purpose is to expand students\u2019 educational experience through topics that are relevant to today\u2019s world, participatory methodologies, and learning environments that bring together different areas of knowledge.<\/p>\n

This course selection allows students to practice English in meaningful academic contexts, while offering both UDP and international students a shared space for academic exchange, global learning, and interdisciplinary conversation.<\/p>\n

For UDP students, these courses also offer a first concrete experience of what it is like to take a university course in English. This will allow them to gain confidence, strengthen their academic skills, and better prepare for future exchange experiences abroad.<\/p>\n

To encourage student participation, the following support measures and facilitators will be available:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Classes will be taught in English. However, students will not be expected to use English exclusively from the beginning of the semester, since the focus will be placed both on understanding course content and on progressively participating in English.<\/li>\n
  2. Course instructors may incorporate different language-use dynamics, according to the characteristics of each course and the needs of their students. Throughout the semester, the use of English will gradually increase.<\/li>\n
  3. Each course will have the support of a teaching assistant from the English Pedagogy program, who will help answer questions, guide academic work, and support students with the language component of the course.<\/li>\n
  4. Students who complete the course with a minimum final grade of 4.0 will receive an additional 0.5 grade point, in recognition of the academic effort involved in taking a course in another language.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Taking an interdisciplinary course taught in English allows students to broaden their university experience, strengthen academic communication skills, and connect their education with an increasingly international academic and professional field.<\/p>\n
