Why study

Because a specialized knowledge of Anglophone linguistics, literatures and cultures is a vital element in today’s global and intercultural society. Because the skills related to the communication, organization and well-structured presentation of information, acquired in previous stages of study, are greatly enhanced by the research training and experience offered in this programme. Because the programme makes it possible for participants to carry out part of their studies in another centre within the Erasmus mobility framework, and in this way students can gain an individual perspective of this intercultural experience.
