Overview
About the course
During the Intercultural Communicative Competence course at the University of Westminster you will explore intercultural theory with the aim of identifying barriers to effective intercultural communication and to overcome those barriers (eg lack of cultural awareness, stereotypical representations).
By expanding your knowledge on theories of intercultural competence you will begin to analyse your own intercultural competence and that of others, to identify how best to improve, and to see how to set about doing so.
Using the knowledge and capacities that you gain throughout the course, you will be able to apply theories to any environment where a variety of cultures or subcultures are present (eg in their personal lives, language teaching or other professional context).
