Tandem Programme

Intercultural Language Learning

improve foreign language skills - make international friends - develop intercultural competence

The Tandem programme at the University of Applied Sciences Burgenland brings students from different countries together with the aim of promoting intercultural language learning. It not only offers students the opportunity to improve their foreign language skills, but also to develop intercultural competence and make international friends.

The tandem programme brings together two students with different mother tongues to help each other with language learning (e.g. an Austrian student helps a Croatian student to learn German, the Croatian student helps the Austrian student to learn Croatian). In tandem learning, languages are learnt and practised outside the classroom in a relaxed atmosphere.

 

The tandem programme is aimed at students from the following 10 universities: Aix-Marseille Université, University of Applied Sciences Burgenland, Joseph Haydn Conservatory, King's College London, Laurea University of Applied Sciences, University of Teacher Education Burgenland, Sveučilište u Zadru, Universidad de Salamanca, University of Aberdeen and Univerza v Mariboru.

 

Registration for the winter semester 2024/25: https://forms.office.com/e/cj1DKYrFP6

is possible until Friday, 4 October 2024.
After successful registration, students will receive access to the Tandem Moodle course.
