English Studies (Literature, Linguistics, Culture) 

Overview

The English Studies (Literature, Linguistics, Culture) programme from Vilnius University   is a broad interdisciplinary programme concerned with both the theoretical and empirical analysis of the role of the English language, culture and literature in modern society. The programme consists of three equally balanced blocks of general and subject-specific courses in linguistics, literature and culture.

The programme does not only develop students' subject-specific competences, but also provides them with competences necessary to specialise in other fields.Studies are closely related to the individualisation and differentiation of the study process, development of social skills, principles of study content integration, application of relevant modern methods of teaching and learning.

Career:

There is a wide range of opportunities for professional activities. Graduates of the English Studies programme may look for employment not only in the academic field (research in literature, culture and linguistics and teaching literary and language courses at higher education institutions), but also in other diverse areas (editing, translation, lexicography, proofreading and publishing activities, work in literary archives and museums, and various other public institutions and organizations), in which practical application of the acquired knowledge is required.
