CIT language courses:

The Degree in International Business with Advanced German/Spanish/French;

CIT also offers the following language modules for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th year Business Studies, Business Admin, Marketing, and Tourism students:

·         German (from Beginners Level in 1st year)

·         Spanish (from Beginners Level in 1st year)

·         French (from Advanced Level in 1st year)

Students taking courses that do not automatically include a language can still avail of a language option, by taking it as their ‘Free Choice’ from Semester 1 through to Semester 8. By the end of Semester 8, the student will have built up a good range of communication skills in the target language. In CIT, we focus on general business, as well as technical (depending on the field of study that the student is in) language acquisition and usage, so that even those who have taken Italian, French, German or Spanish beforehand will benefit from acquiring new language that they will not have encountered previously on secondary school (or other) programmes.

As intercultural awareness is an essential tenet of effective communication with people from other countries, Cultural Studies forms an integral part of the language programmes at CIT. Indeed, students can opt to spend a semester (normally in the second or third year) in a partner university, or participate in a work placement programme abroad, which will improve their language skills, as well as allow them to broaden their knowledge and skill sets through constructive involvement in a business and academic environment in another country.

Language Learning at the Institute of Technology Sligo

Since the mid 1970s IT Sligo has been actively promoting the study of European languages and was the first Higher Education Institution in the State to develop a Languages and Marketing Diploma incorporating a year abroad at a European third level Institution. IT Sligo remains proud of its commitment to language learning and currently offers four European languages to its undergraduate students. These languages are French, Spanish, German and Italian. English for non-native speakers is also offered. Despite a waning interest in language learning over the past decade, IT Sligo remained optimistic and continued to offer all four European languages. With a resurgent interest in the study of languages, we are now confident of ever increasing student numbers and of a consequent strengthening of our links with our European partner institutions in France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Czech Republic and Sweden to name just some.

The philosophy of language teaching and learning in IT Sligo is that languages are first and foremost a communicative subject. Their application in the field of employment whether it be Business, the Sciences, Arts and Humanities or Engineering is actively encouraged. The importance of availing of the Erasmus programme is considered fundamental to building fluency and confidence in the students’ language(s) of choice.
