Kurs
Kurs 60 högskolepoäng • SFSH60
This course package is designed for students seeking a unique Scandinavian study abroad experience and who are interested in acquiring and developing a Swedish language skill.
Learning Swedish
The Swedish beginner’s language course has a rapid progression and by the end of the first semester (level 4), you will be able to understand radio and television programmes on current affairs or topics of personal interest.
By the end of the whole course, you will be able to
understand extended speech and lectures and follow even complex lines of argument provided the topic is reasonably familiar
understand television programmes and films without too much effort
read articles and reports concerned with contemporary problems in which the writers present attitudes or viewpoints
interact with native Swedes with a degree of fluency and spontaneity and take an active part in discussions, accounting for and sustaining your views
present clear, detailed descriptions of complex subjects and employ various styles of writing, selecting a style appropriate to the reader in mind.
To achieve this, the course is thematically organised and communicative activities are an integral part of each lesson.
The course package includes two semesters of full-time studies (60 ECTS). To be eligible for the second semester, you must pass level 4 during the first semester. At the end of successfully completed studies the student will receive a transcript and certificate. For students currently studying a degree, the home university will need to approve whether the ECTS credits from the course package can be transferred to the current degree programme. A grade of Pass on the whole course SFSH60 meets the requirement of Swedish proficiency for admission to Swedish higher education.
Requirements
The course requires basic eligibility for university studies, with the exception of Swedish. To show that you fulfill the requirements, you need to send in your Higher secondary school diploma and transcript. Depending on where you studied, you may meet the English requirement for the course or programme you applied to through upper secondary studies. Find out if that is the case for your country of study on www.universityadmissions.se/. If the English requirement is not met by your secondary school diploma, you need to upload other proof of proficiency in English (corresponding to English course 6 in the Swedish upper secondary school) by means of an internationally recognised test, e.g. TOEFL, IELTS or the equivalent. See more under English Language Requirements on www.universityadmissions.se.
Read the information carefully on the Admission website (www.universityadmissions.se) about what documents you need to send in and how. Also make sure to log in to your account to check that all necessary documents have been uploaded.
