All language modules are aligned with the Common European Reference Framework for Languages, which identifies six levels (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2). The different levels are described here.

The Module Handbook describes the modules in detail, including the required level for taking the course (starting level) and the level attained once you have successfully completed the module (target level).

The titles of General Elective modules actually specify the target level, e.g. Spanish – Elementary A1.

Certain classes such as Business English Conversation focus on refining specific aspects of language, rather than improving the general level. In these cases, a starting level is specified but no target level.
