A selection of the interdisciplinary elective modules at the University of Liechtenstein includes language courses in English, German as a foreign language, and Spanish. The courses are characterised by their interactive design and small-group learning.

External participants from the region who meet the general admission requirements for university studies are also warmly invited to take part and may attend as guest students for a fee.

Upon request, we are happy to provide written confirmation of successful participation and the language level achieved.

Placement Test and Course Selection

New bachelor’s degree students in Business Administration are automatically registered for the Oxford Online Placement Test. This test can be taken conveniently from home within a specified period before the start of lectures. Detailed information will be published on my.uni.li in due time.

The Oxford Online Placement Test helps determine your current level of English proficiency and supports the selection of the appropriate course.

Students in higher semesters or other programmes will find the relevant requirements in the respective course descriptions.

The levels indicated in the test results, as well as the competence and level descriptions in the English courses, correspond to the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).
