In the seminar "Argumentation and Critical Reading," you will develop skills needed throughout your English studies as well as in professional and private contexts after you graduate.
The course offers you the chance to hone argumentation skills to describe complex interrelationships and diverse, perhaps even controversial, perspectives. In the critical reading component, you will practice techniques that help you to grasp the main points of academic texts quickly and accurately and how to voice your own personal critical thoughts on them.
Materials will be provided online.
