Dear students,

The aim of the English Language and Literature study program is to prepare students for the global market where English language is one of the most preferable communication choices. In this Program, students have a number of English language and literature specific courses that they have to complete, but they also have a freedom of choice to study some University, Program or Faculty elective courses offered in different semesters during the first cycle of their studies. The multidisciplinary nature of the English Language and Literature study program and its emphasis on developing students’ intrapersonal, interpersonal and communication skills ensures that students will graduate with a set of skills that can be applied to various careers.
