Bachelor in English Language and Literature

Tuition fees are 8,750 EUR per year.

English Language and Literature focuses on the study of English-language texts alongside the structure and development of the English language itself. Coursework typically covers British and American literature, literary criticism, linguistics, academic and creative writing, and survey courses covering different literary periods and movements. Students learn to interpret and analyze literary works, understand grammar and language structure at an advanced level, and produce clear, well-supported academic writing. Graduates often go on to work in teaching, publishing, journalism, editing, and translation, or continue into graduate study in literature, linguistics, or applied language fields. This bachelor's program is delivered in English over 4 years at Girne American University in Girne, Northern Cyprus. Because the subject matter is the English language and its literature, English-medium instruction allows students to engage directly with primary texts and critical scholarship in their original language. The program is based in Girne, a coastal city in Northern Cyprus known for its university community, offering a setting suited to seminar-style literary discussion. Across the 4 years of study, students typically move from introductory language and composition courses into more specialized literary and linguistic coursework, building skills in textual analysis, argumentation, and research. The program aims to equip graduates with strong command of English language and literature, along with the critical thinking and communication skills that support careers in education, publishing, and related language-based professions.
