What it is
This is a two-subject degree, studied together with music education, choral singing or an instrument. The English half centres on linguistics, with attention to both its theory and its practical use, and on the analysis of literature across genres, with language practice aimed at advanced proficiency. You write a bachelor's thesis in English. Graduates can continue to a master's in teaching for secondary schools, or work in state and international institutions.
