A two-year Master’s programme for self-payers taught and studied in English
English Philology programme is designed to deepen student’s knowledge of English linguistics in the areas of pragmatics, stylistics, the historical development of English, and sociolinguistics. It, therefore, studies the language from both synchronic and diachronic perspectives. The literature and culture component of the study provides deep insight into specific themes and trends in English and American literature and literary theory, as well as knowledge of the specifics of individual literary types/genres, both traditional (canonical) and popular. Students will enhance their literary and genre analysis skills, broaden their expertise in textual analysis, and develop their communicative competence. They will be given an excellent foundation for their further academic journey at PhD level. The graduates will be fluent in English at the C2 level of the Common European Framework of Reference and will have a perfect understanding of linguistics and British and American literature and culture. They could work in positions where communication in an English-speaking environment and an intercultural perspective are key, such as international companies, publishing houses, cultural and administration agencies with English as the main language.
