Is at the right programme for you?

English? You already know the language, right? But do you then also know whether 'cough' rhymes with 'dough', 'though', 'plough' or 'enough'? And if an Englishman is really interested when he says: ?that?s interesting?? Understanding English down to the last detail does not only entail your knowledge about pronunciation and grammar, but also means understanding the culture. That is why, besides writing and speaking English, English Language and Culture also focuses on the rich history, culture and literature of Great Britain and typical British habits. Are you interested in English language and culture? Do you want to understand why Europe is worried about the ?Brexit?? Are you curious to know how the English language has evolved throughout the centuries? And would you like to do more with English language and culture than just read British books and watch television series and films? Then this Bachelor?s programme fits you perfectly!
