Bachelor in Language and literature studies (American studies)

Language and Literature Studies (American Studies), presented here as the International Business Communication programme, is a bachelor's degree taught in English over three years (six semesters) at the University of Social Sciences in Łódź, Poland. The programme is built around the idea that effective communication management is a factor in the success of both companies and individual employees, and that achieving specific communication goals depends on strong language skills as a communication tool. It brings together linguistics and professional communication, aiming to develop students' ability to use language as an instrument of interpersonal, business, mass, and intercultural communication. The curriculum is designed to modern standards and gives students practical skills that extend beyond traditional philology, including the international language of business, marketing, and media. The Admissions Office is located in Łódź at ul. Kilińskiego 98, with office hours Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and applications can be submitted online at apply.san.edu.pl. A programme combining American studies with business communication of this kind typically prepares graduates for roles in international business, marketing, corporate communications, and media, where cross-cultural competence and strong English skills are valued alongside subject knowledge of American language, culture, and society. Students usually study American history, literature, and cultural contexts alongside practical communication and language coursework, giving them both the humanities grounding associated with American studies and the applied skills needed for business and professional communication roles in multinational environments.
