2 English Studies Degree Programs

This degree study program is divided into two tracks: Linguistics and Literary and Cultural Studies. Each student chooses one specialization and the focus of their studies is on that track. All students must complete five Type-A/required courses. The remainder of the program consists of type B/selective and type C/elective courses that the student chooses based on the track chosen. The student then writes a Master’s thesis based on the track and relevant coursework. With the exception of some courses in translation, all teaching, coursework, and exams in this study program are carried out in the English language.

In the program English Language and Literature, you will acquire an overview of the histories, cultures, and literature of English-speaking countries, mainly the UK, USA, Canada and Australia. You will also learn about basic linguistic theories and will be introduced to the theory and practice of translation.
