The Language Center (CLA) organises Italian language courses for the international PhD students of the University of Padova.
The courses cover levels from Pre-A1 to C1 of the CEFR – Common European Framework of Reference for Languages and are aimed at:
- International PhD students enrolled at the University of Padova;
- Visiting PhD students.
Italian courses free of charge
IMPORTANT : Attendance is free of charge.
Since places are limited, students who have never attended an Italian language course at the Language Center always receive priority.
Students who have already attended a course (regardless of the type and duration) will be able to enroll in a further course, but if places run out they will be placed on a waiting list, which will be scrolled in the event of withdrawals/no shows.
