Language Centre


Attention to language training has characterised the educational-didactic project of LIUC-Università Cattaneo since its beginning.

This does not mean only language courses, exams and certificates, but also a vision open to international relations, communication, and cultural diversity.

Therefore, in a panorama of activities favouring attendance, internationalisation, and individual growth, the Language Centre at LIUC coordinates and promotes training offerings to students in the field of ‘languages’; indispensable for operating around the world, both on a personal and professional level.

Languages (taught by professional native speakers) offered are: English, French, German, and Spanish.

The Language Centre is an official examination centre for some of the main accredited certifications (TOEFL iBT and Cambridge Business).

 TOEFL iBT

This is an Academic English examination. Students must register directly on www.ets.org and check for confirmation of the examination at one of the various available venues/dates.

Consistent with the LIUC School Boards’ indications, the Language Centre has made available a systematic tutoring service, either individual or in small groups (2/3 students max.).

The service is free but does not replace the normal reception of teachers. It is reserved, except in exceptional cases, for students attending institutional English courses, of which it is not a duplicate or substitute.

Students interested in the tutoring service must contact the Language Centre’s Secretary via email, [email protected], in order to define needs, clarify doubts, and establish time/date(s).
