2023-24 English language

All Polytechnic School students enrolled in graduate and undergraduate courses must possess adequate proficiency in the English language. 
All first-year students enrolled in Bachelor’s Degree programs at the Polytechnic School must take the B1 Assessment Test (AT B1). 

English language certificates. Students can submit an English B2 (or higher, i.e., C1 or C2) language certificate. A list of accepted certificates at UniGe is available on the  CLAT webpage. Submitted certificates are assessed and valid ones allow students to have their English B2 level acknowledged and recorded in their career along with their respective credits. 

In academic year 2023-24: 

  • By the end of the following Bachelor’s Degree programs, students must have acquired an English B2 CEFR level or higher (course code 108708)

If you did not pass AT B1, we strongly advise you to take the online EN B1 monitored course and exam, since having a B1 English level is crucial to achieve the EN B2 goal that is required in your study plan. 
Without an EN B1 level, passing an EN B2 test would be too difficult (more information here)
