Engelsk fordjupingsstudium
The study programme builds on the broad foundation given in the Year Course and offers specialisation in one or more limited areas within English studies. A selection of courses on linguistic and literary topics is offered.The programme can be incorporated into a variety of bachelor degrees and can serve as a qualification for master studies at universities and university colleges. The programme also provides relevant competence for the teaching of English in schools, if combined with a teacher training programme or PPU (practical pedagogical training). Admission to the PPU-programme requires a masters degree including a school subject.
In accordance with the national qualification framework, the student has reached the following learning outcomes after completing the programme:
After completing the programme, the student possesses knowledge about
- one or two selected fields within English language and/or literature
- central theories and issues within the field.
After completing the programme, the student is able to
- analyse and interpret linguistic and/or literary expressions in a critical way
- give an academic, oral presentation on her/his topic(s) within the field of study
- write independent, academic texts in English
- discuss theoretical approaches to language and/or literature
After completing the programme, the student is able to
- develop their knowledge of a specific field in English studies
- improve their ability to work independently
The programme consists of two 15-credit 200-level courses. These can be taught courses in language (ENG201/200) and literature (ENG203/206), or one taught course combined with a bachelor paper (ENG211/213). The bachelor programmes require a bachelor paper.One taught course will be offered each term: language courses in the autumn and literary courses in the spring. The bachelor paper builds on a 200-level course within the same discipline. ENG 211/213 may be taken in parallel with the taught course it builds on, or later; our general recommendation is that students complete the taught course before commencing the bachelor paper. The taught courses offered alternate from year to year: at the moment, the courses ENG 206 and ENG 200 are offered in even-numbered years, ENG 203 and ENG 201 in odd-numbered years: the specific taught courses offered are however subject to change.
