(DFLTAL) Technical University – Sofia
COURSE STATUS IN THE CURRICULUM: Compulsory for all students in the Electrical Engineering
BEng programme of the Technical University of Sofia.
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE: The aim of the foreign language education is to enable
students in using scientific literature and specialized texts, as well as to enhance their communicative competence adopting culturally appropriate modes of behaviour relevant to the concrete situation and apply
effective compensatory strategies in overcoming communicative problems. The additional practice of micro
and macro language skills are targeted at preparing students for successful participation in international
scientific conferences and symposia, graduate and post-graduate exchange programmes sponsored by the EU
or bilateral agreements with partner universities.
DESCRIPTION OF THE COURSE: The students are taught according to a flexible modular system, adjusted to the three proficiency levels identified by means of an entry test in the respective language. The
programme of study consolidates and enriches the linguistic knowledge acquired in secondary schools with
new categories, notions and lexis characteristic for each discipline. By means of authentic course books the
students gain in-depth knowledge in grammar, syntax, word formation, phraseology, and specialized terminology. Foreign language education builds up communicative abilities and competence allowing students to
socialize and function effectively in real-life professional situations. They develop the four language skills /
Listening, Reading, Speaking and Writing/ aiming to facilitate their adequate auditory and visual comprehension of information, offered in a foreign language, as well as their active ability to respond in keep with the
stylistics and norms of multicultural communication. The correlation general to specialized language is 1:2.
The modern equipment and facilities of the Department of Foreign Language Teaching and Applied Linguistics allows the use of up-to-date audio-visual and technical equipment such as: language labs, VDU, cassette
recorders, OHP-s, and computers.
PREREQUISITES: The course of study requires basic knowledge of the language and elementary rules of
grammar and basic lexical items and their use, taught at secondary schools and vocational schools.
TEACHING METHODS: The selection and structuring of syllabus content is carried out by way of an
integrated theoretical-practical communicative approach, taking into consideration the functional needs of
students to use the language competently in cross-cultural and professional medium. Various interactive
methods of classroom management are applied, such as discussions, presentations, case studies, role, theme
projects, computer tests in grammar and lexicology on different proficiency levels, as well as translation of
specialized scientific texts. The modular principle of foreign language teaching allows for a synthesis of a
learner-centered seminar work in a given sphere with individual forms of study and self-study.
METHOD OF ASSESSMENT: In addition to the ongoing assessment, based on the participation of
students in workshops, presentations and written tests during the semester, the final exams are administered
in the form of standard EU recognized exit tests on several proficiency levels to estimate the achieved
progress and quality of acquired knowledge. Some specialties request that part of the final assessment
includes translation of an abstract from a scientific book in a subject-specific field from a foreign language
into Bulgarian. The final grade is made on the basis of two written tests for the period of training throughout
the semester (an overall of 80%) and active participation in seminars and workshops and individual
presentations (an overall of 20%).
INSTRUCTION LANGUAGE: English, German, French, Russian.
BIBLIOGRAPHY: A number of course materials and textbooks have been developed under European
projects and in collaboration with the British Council and Goethe Institute in the sphere of specialized
language teaching for science and business purposes. There are rich resources available at the English,
German and French Departmental libraries and multimedia packages of original software programmes in
FLT.

(DFLTAL) Technical University – Sofia
COURSE STATUS IN THE CURRICULUM: Compulsory for all students in the Electrical Engineering
BEng programme of the Technical University of Sofia.
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE: The aim of the foreign language education is to enable
students in using scientific literature and specialized texts, as well as to enhance their communicative competence adopting culturally appropriate modes of behaviour relevant to the concrete situation and apply
effective compensatory strategies in overcoming communicative problems. The additional practice of micro
and macro language skills are targeted at preparing students for successful participation in international
scientific conferences and symposia, graduate and post-graduate exchange programmes sponsored by the EU
or bilateral agreements with partner universities.
DESCRIPTION OF THE COURSE: The students are taught according to a flexible modular system, adjusted to the three proficiency levels identified by means of an entry test in the respective language. The
programme of study consolidates and enriches the linguistic knowledge acquired in secondary schools with
new categories, notions and lexis characteristic for each discipline. By means of authentic course books the
students gain in-depth knowledge in grammar, syntax, word formation, phraseology, and specialized terminology. Foreign language education builds up communicative abilities and competence allowing students to
socialize and function effectively in real-life professional situations. They develop the four language skills /
Listening, Reading, Speaking and Writing/ aiming to facilitate their adequate auditory and visual comprehension of information, offered in a foreign language, as well as their active ability to respond in keep with the
stylistics and norms of multicultural communication. The correlation general to specialized language is 1:2.
The modern equipment and facilities of the Department of Foreign Language Teaching and Applied Linguistics allows the use of up-to-date audio-visual and technical equipment such as: language labs, VDU, cassette
recorders, OHP-s, and computers.
PREREQUISITES: The course of study requires basic knowledge of the language and elementary rules of
grammar and basic lexical items and their use, taught at secondary schools and vocational schools.
TEACHING METHODS: The selection and structuring of syllabus content is carried out by way of an
integrated theoretical-practical communicative approach, taking into consideration the functional needs of
students to use the language competently in cross-cultural and professional medium. Various interactive
methods of classroom management are applied, such as discussions, presentations, case studies, role, theme
projects, computer tests in grammar and lexicology on different proficiency levels, as well as translation of
specialized scientific texts. The modular principle of foreign language teaching allows for a synthesis of a
learner-centered seminar work in a given sphere with individual forms of study and self-study.
METHOD OF ASSESSMENT: In addition to the ongoing assessment, based on the participation of
students in workshops, presentations and written tests during the semester, the final exams are administered
in the form of standard EU recognized exit tests on several proficiency levels to estimate the achieved
progress and quality of acquired knowledge. Some specialties request that part of the final assessment
includes translation of an abstract from a scientific book in a subject-specific field from a foreign language
into Bulgarian. The final grade is made on the basis of two written tests for the period of training throughout
the semester (an overall of 80%) and active participation in seminars and workshops and individual
presentations (an overall of 20%).
INSTRUCTION LANGUAGE: English, German, French, Russian.
BIBLIOGRAPHY: A number of course materials and textbooks have been developed under European
projects and in collaboration with the British Council and Goethe Institute in the sphere of specialized
language teaching for science and business purposes. There are rich resources available at the English,
German and French Departmental libraries and multimedia packages of original software programmes in
FLT.

physical exercise and sports, to unloads of mental activities. Let them create lasting habits for sports
activities. To acquire new skills and knowledge of individual sports.
DESCRIPTION OF THE COURSE: Students follow a flexible modular system, tailored to their
abilities and desires (choice of sport). Programs allow to improve the skills aquired during
secondary and primary education in selected sports. Students acquire a thorough knowledge of the
sport, but in some - such as skiing and volleyball, can acquire judicial rights in addition. The TU
Sports Complex makes it possible to conduct many types of sports, including swimming, tennis,
soccer, tennis, fitness (for men, women), basketball, volleyball and others. Along with sports
practiced outside the sports complex - hiking, skiing, rock climbing, rowing, sailing and more,
students have the choice of 20 different sports.
PREREQUISITES: Sports sem.1.
TEACHING METHODS: In structuring the curriculum contents a practical communicative
approach is used that is consistent with the functional and physical abilities of students. The
modular principle enables the learning of sporting skills in the corresponding sport.
METHODS OF ASSESMENT: Tests of physical capabilities, as well as tests for motor skills and
habits in different sports are carried out.
