English Language is taught by staff in Applied Linguistics.  All teaching staff are research-active and tend to specialise in fields such as vocabulary acquisition and testing, TEFL, discourse analysis and stylistics, corpus linguistics and computer-assisted language learning. Our undergraduate schemes have been designed to give students concise and balanced coverage of linguistic theory and practice. Because staff specialise in the real-world application of linguistics, students should find the modules they follow both interesting and of relevance to their future careers. Our programmes are taught through the medium of English language. Visit the website for more information.
