Foreign Language Master’s courses

Section Contents
Module description

A foreign language is a part of the compulsory curriculum at ITMO University. To make the process of learning foreign languages engaging and efficient, we have developed a special 1-year program for our Master’s students.

The main foreign language at ITMO is English. International students study Russian as a foreign language.

Before your classes start, you’ll need to take a test to identify your level of proficiency in English or Russian (for foreign students) according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). Depending on the results of the test, you will be advised to the following tracks: A1, A2, B1.1, B1.2, B2, C1, С1+

Foreign students whose test results demonstrate a high level of proficiency in Russian (B2 and above) can choose English as a foreign language.

Apart from the main foreign language, students can also opt to study other languages.

Moreover, to have additional language practice students of all levels and academic degrees can attend Speaking clubs. There are speaking clubs in Russian, English, German, French and Spanish.

For students, willing to go abroad for an exchange semester, there is also a possibility to pass an English proficiency test and get a certificate that will be a relevant proof or student’s English level.

How to sign up for the course You need to choose the group of appropriate language and level at my.itmo.ru. The level is determined by entrance testing.
