The master's degree in English literature permits students to gain insight into literary research, and to augment and improve their knowledge of English literature and language in the light of Anglo-American literary theory and cultural history.
The master's degree expands your knowledge beyond bachelor's level through scientifically based analyses of literary texts and training in seeing literature in a context of history of literature and general cultural developments. The first half of the study consists of coursework - a selection of courses intended to provide academic breadth and the necessary depth for writing of the thesis in the second half of the study. In support of the work with the thesis we emphasize teaching of topics within discipline history and theoretical and methodological issues.
The Master's Programme leads up to a Master of Philosophy in Literature Studies.
You are normally required to take an English Proficiency Test.
Most European Universities recognise the IELTS test.
