2002

 

In cooperation with the University of Lleida and the Generalitat de Catalunya

Postgrau en estudies sobre la joventut – M.A. in Youth Studies

The second year of this course runs from January to April 2002 in Lleida (Catalonia/Spain). The course is held mainly in Catalonian and Spanish; some sessions provide for two-way interpretation between English and Catalonian. Many students can converse in English and/or French and could assist those whose command of Catalonian, Castilian or Latin/South American varieties of Spanish is less than perfect. But those with no comprehension of Hispanic languages are not, at present, advised to participate.
