Sisältö

This course focuses on two particular aspects of intercultural communication: differences in work-life culture, and differences in face-to-face communication (verbal and nonverbal communication). A short repetition of the most widely used models of classification for cultural differences is included at the beginning, so the course may be completed successfully without taking XICP0211 Introduction to Intercultural Communication, first.
