questions and to practise vocabulary, not to find information.
1.Which faculties are these? ( introduction to Activity 2) It could be done together, with the whole group.
a. The Faculty of Automotive and Construction Machinery Engineering –Wydział Samochodów i Maszyn Roboczych
b. The Faculty of Chemical and Process Engineering –Wydział Inżynierii Chemicznej i Procesowej
c. The Faculty of Materials Science and Engineering –Wydzial Inżynierii Materiałowej
d. The Faculty of Civil Engineering –Wydział Inżynierii Lądowej
e. The Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering –Wydział Mechaniczny Energetyki i Lotnictwa
f. The Faculty of Administration and Social Science –Wydział Administracji i Nauk Społecznych
2. Ask each other questions about the underlined information to make the sentences true about each other.
I study telecommunications at Warsaw University of Technology, in the Faculty of Electronics and
Information Technology. I’m an undergraduate student / freshman/a 1-st year student. My course lasts for 8 semesters
and then I can graduate with a BSc degree in (the field of) telecommunications. Most students, however, study further
(another 2 semesters) to get a master’s degree.
I do core (obligatory) subjects, like maths, physics or programming, and also elective (non-compulsory)
subjects, like Ethical Aspects of Research and Engineering or Academic Writing.
Weekly I have 30 hours of lectures, lab classes and tutorials. I do not have to attend lectures, but it is
advisable.
I earn credits for my class performance and exams.
Sample questions:
1. What do you study at WUT?
2. What faculty are you in?
3. Which year are you in?
4. How long does your course last?
5. What do you graduate with?
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.
What are your core subjects?
What are your elective subjects?
How many hours do you have a week?
Do you have to attend lectures?
What do you get credits for?
3. Complete the sentences with a suitable verb in the correct form (adapted from FC Expert Pearson/Longman). This
exercise is to be done only with groups that do not use FC Expert.
