Enrol in the First Arqus Multilingualism Module and Learn Lithuanian and Much More
If you are an Arqus student, including those from our associate partner, the National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy, and are interested in learning basic Lithuanian, becoming familiar with the sociocultural aspects of daily life in Lithuania, improving your foreign language skills, and gaining knowledge about language learning strategies, multiculturalism, and other linguistic concepts, this course is ideal for you. By participating, you can add extra value and benefits to your studies.
The pilot version of the Arqus Multilingualism Module will take place from October 2024 to January 2025. Depending on your university, up to 5 ECTS credits may be awarded. The course will be held on the MS Teams platform, is free of charge, and participants will receive an Arqus certificate of participation. Students at Vilnius University and those at other universities in the Alliance that recognize the credits will be awarded 5 ECTS credits, while all other students will receive a certificate of participation.
