**The module is divided into two parts:**

The first module, Perspectives on International Communication (2.5 ECTS), focuses on intercultural communication in general, and takes as its point of departure some central theories, notions and practices from anthropology and sociology, in order to provide a framework for a critical analysis and understanding of obstacles and pitfalls in intercultural communication. The aim of the course module is to provide the students with tools to be able to identify and remedy communication breakdowns in favour of creating less friction in professional intercultural contexts.

The second part, Intercultural Communication with English as a Lingua Franca (5 ECTS), builds on the theories and notions studied in the first part, but here, the focus is on communicative situations where English is the language of communication. Here, linguistic features will also be analysed and discussed as possible obstacles and/or resources to successful communication.
