Language Courses
Dive into the multilingual world of SEA-EU, where over 90% of students bring English skills, and nearly half are familiar with Spanish, French, and German. While Polish and Croatian expand our linguistic horizon, we’re enhancing language learning opportunities across the alliance. With courses in national languages and specialized programs, we’re committed to broadening linguistic competencies, embracing Croatian, French, German, Maltese, Polish, Spanish, and English, enriching our community’s global communication and cultural understanding.

Virtual Language Courses
The SEA-EU Virtual Language Courses is an activity based on the principle of reciprocity: On this virtual language platform, we list courses offered by each SEA-EU partner university to participants from other partner universities.
We strengthen our alliance by coordinating and maintaining an up-to-date list of language courses. Thereby, SEA-EU students and staff can obtain centrally all the information needed for enrollment into these online courses. The platform/list is updated regularly as new courses become available.
