Course content
Written test (cca 60 minutes) Aim The aim of the written part is to test language competence in reading comprehension, grammar and vocabulary at level B2 of the Common European Framework of Reference. The pass mark for the written test is 60%, regardless of the results in the individual sections. Format Reading Comprehension: Text with academic topic of general interest (rather than text for professionals) at B2 level, dictionaries are not allowed (cca 30 minutes). Grammar and vocabulary: Questions with various test tasks (cca 30 minutes). Oral exam (cca 20 minutes) Aim The aim of the oral examination is to demonstrate the ability to communicate in the general language and in the field of doctoral study. Format Introduction of the student: internships, studies abroad, publications in 2-3 minutes plus answering the examiner's questions. PowerPoint presentation in the field of doctoral studies lasting up to 10 minutes followed by a discussion. Presentations must be comprehensible for general public. Students will talk about their work with the help of brief bullet points in their presentation. Presentations must not contain coherent text which students would be tempted to read (students bring their presentation on a flash drive). Organisation, assessment and recognition of the written examination - Students apply separately for the written examination (credit) and the oral examination (exam). The written examination must be taken first. After successfully passing the written examination, the student receives credit and may take the oral examination. - The written and oral examinations are graded separately. If a student fails one part, written or oral, he/she repeats only that part. - The written part may be replaced by a certificate of successful completion of an international language examination at level B2 or above. A copy of the B2 examination certificate is handed in by the student at the tutorial.
