English for Specific Purposes and Interculturality Mykolas Romeris University

Overview

The English for Specific Purposes and Interculturality programme from Mykolas Romeris University is designed to train highly qualified specialists in English for Specific Purposes who are able to identify and understand social and cultural features of societal phenomena, analyse and assess them, and, based on this knowledge and skill set, carry out linguistic tasks essential for ensuring smooth intercultural dialogue in English.

The programme comprises two key components: English language studies in two specialised fields (international business and international law) and intercultural studies, which focus on analysing and evaluating the cultural aspects of Western and Eastern societies and their global interactions. The studies provide both the theoretical knowledge necessary for research in these fields and the practical skills needed for organising and facilitating international communication processes in business enterprises and public institutions.

Career Prospects

Graduates of this programme will be able to apply the knowledge and skills acquired during their studies in a wide range of organisations that need English language specialists capable of ensuring smooth communication in an intercultural environment. 

These include national and international business enterprises (in sectors such as service provision, logistics, import/export, etc.), media companies, marketing and advertising agencies, digital content creation companies, travel agencies, and international relations departments of public institutions. 

Graduates of the programme will also be eligible to pursue doctoral studies in the field of philology within the humanities at any institution offering third-cycle studies in this field.
