ENGLISH LINGUISTICS
The English Linguistics program provides in-depth training in the English language, English-speaking cultures, and cultures of English-speaking countries. Students are immersed in a multicultural environment with educational activities such as simulated scenarios, case analysis, project practice, and group projects. Through these activities, students will refine their professional knowledge and soft skills to communicate confidently with foreigners and work effectively in international environments.
The program particularly emphasizes practical application and relevance by integrating current trends and significant social issues into classroom teaching.
The English Language program includes four specialized fields: Teaching Methods, International Tourism, Communication, and Business Diplomacy. The faculty consists of native speakers or instructors with many years of experience abroad.

Many students in the English Language program have been hired directly by recruitment agencies during their internships or have found employment within their first year of graduation.
