English

Graduates of the Bachelor's degree programme in English Studies acquire all the core knowledge and intercultural linguistic competences expected of a graduate in English or American Studies according to international standards. They are also trained to apply the knowledge and competences they acquire in a critical and flexible manner in a variety of contexts. Graduates of the double-subject degree programme are equally able to apply such knowledge and competences in relation to the other subject or area of their study.
Among the skills and competences acquired, the following should be highlighted: an in-depth knowledge of English grammar and linguistics; mastery of listening, speaking, reading and writing; understanding language contact between English and Slovene; understanding intercultural communication; knowledge of the cultures and literatures of English-speaking communities; an awareness of and ability to understand native and non-native speakers of English; linguistic accommodation and overcoming barriers to communication; and, not least, an awareness of the need to continuously improve the skills and competences already acquired in order to keep pace with the rapid development of the field.
