1 COURSE UNITS TAUGHT IN ENGLISH 2011/2012 The majority of course units are conducted in Portuguese. Modern Language and Literature studies are usually medium-taught (in Portuguese, English, French, German, Dutch, Spanish or Italian). Although, there are some degrees completely taught in English and a number of course units offered in English in some Faculties. In some cases, exchange students make arrangements with lecturers in order to be allowed to do examinations or submit assignments in English (or in another language, if both parts know it).
