South Slavic studies

Students of the combined study programme acquire high linguistic competence in one of the South Slavic languages, with a focus on Croatian (and contrastively Serbian, Bosnian, Montenegrin) and Macedonian (and contrastively Bulgarian), as well as high literary and cultural competence in the field of South Slavic literatures, societies, and cultures. This means that, upon completion of their studies, students can communicate at a high level, both orally and in writing, in at least one of the South Slavic languages and have a good knowledge of South Slavic literatures, cultures and societies.
The study programme also provides the theoretical and professional foundations for the effective and systematic solution of concrete professional problems, introduces graduates to the basics of research, and at the same time enables them to further their knowledge at a second level.
Graduates of South Slavic Studies acquire the competences for the jobs in a wide range of public sector activities and in public and private enterprises. The acquired knowledge and skills ensure successful and creative work.
