The programme is made up of :
♦ core courses (75 credits);
- one dissertation and accompanying seminar;
- courses on research techniques;
- case studies in the field 'gouvernance et sociétés';
♦ a Professional Focus in Languages for Business Communication (30 credits);
♦ and one option or optional course (15 credits).
Wathever the focus or the options chosen, the programme of this master shall totalise 120 credits, spread over two years of studies each of 60 credits
Professional Focus in Languages for Business Communication
Options or optional courses
1° Student must hold a first level university degree.
2° Student must supply evidence that he has achieved, in both languages which he wishes to include in his masters programme, passive communicative skills (listening and reading comprehension) of level « B1+ » ('independent user' level ) of the Common European Framework of Reference.
In the absence of language courses of a level equivalent to level « B1+ » in his previous course of study, the student must pass a level test based on passive communicative knowledge. This test is organised by the programme committee; two sessions are planned : the first at the end of August and the second in September, before the start of the academic year. For more information : ou .
Should the student fail the level test in one of the two languages, prerequisites will be added to his masters programme (without exceeding a total of 15 credits). This will automatically lead to the master courses in this language being put back to the second year of the master.
Should the student fail the level test in both languages, access to the master is subject to the student passing an 'Preparotory year for Master in Multilingual Communication [48.0]' the programme of which is established based on the student's file.
Course equivalences are submitted for approval to the chairman of the jury, the secretary of the jury and the academic faculty secretary.
GENERAL OBSERVATION
The Master in Multilingual Communication involves :
- the pursuit of studies in the two languages included in the bachelor programme (two Germanic languages or one Germanic language and French), whether these languages were studied as a major or minor Minor in Dutch Studies [30.0] - Minor in German Studies [30.0] - Minor in English Studies [30.0] - Minor in French Studies [30.0])
or
- the student must pass a language test proving sufficient knowledge of the two languages he wishes to include on his masters programme.

- A bachelor in Modern Languages and Literatures : General [180.0] who has taken a minor in a second Germanic language includes in his masters programme the two Germanic languages studied in the first level.

Strong points of the pedagogical approach
The student must write his masters dissertation in one of the two languages in his programme and add a summary in French.
Courses are evaluated according to current university regulations (see General Examination Regulations). Students may find further information on specific evaluation methods in the course descriptions.
Students will be strongly encouraged to study outside Belgium in the framework of the Erasmus programme. This Erasmus experience must take place during the first term of the second year of the master. Erasmus students will follow equivalent language and general courses offered in the host university worth a total of 30 credits. The equivalence of courses chosen by the student is evaluated by the MULT master management committee.
Students may also opt to complete their three-month internship outside Belgium in a country where one of the two major languages chosen by the student is spoken. This internship should ideally be completed by the second term of the second year of the master.
In order to meet the needs of Dutch-speaking students wanting to improve their French in a French-speaking environment, French has been added to the existing major languages (Dutch, English, German).
For example :
- Katholieke Universiteit Nijmegen;
- Rijksuniversiteit Groningen;
- Université Charles de Gaulle - Lille III (Sc. Hum, Lettres, Arts).
