The language of instruction for a given subject

The principal of linguistic transparency establishes that the language of instruction for a given subject must be officially announced before the start of the academic year, allowing students to make informed choices about their studies before they enrol. The announcements are binding, meaning that the language of instruction cannot be changed during the remainder of the academic year.

Each faculty announces the languages of instruction for the subjects it offers before the start of the academic year. Students can check the UB web site to find out which languages will be used for bachelor’s degree and university master’s degree subjects.
