STUDY ENGLISH PHILOLOGY
If you want to be well prepared to face the challenges of a highly competitive job market, study English Philology full time at the University of Opole. This is the place where students gain advanced knowledge of language, literature, and culture and history of English-speaking countries as well as practical language skills at a high C1 proficiency level of CEFR for languages. Additionally, students develop a second foreign language at B2 level. Moreover, within their study programme students choose an educational path through elective courses that add competence to their general academic education. Full time studies offer such elective modules as: Culture Studies, Translation Studies, English and Spanish or English and Italian, expanding their employment options in the future.
The classes on full-time studies are held from Monday through Friday. Some courses are conducted online, others are held in classrooms on the university site. All lecturers are available to students during their office hours to discuss academic issues relating to the courses.
Bachelor of Arts studies (undergraduate studies) finish with a BA defense and a BA degree. Undergraduate studies in English Philology prepare candidates for graduate studies in a similar field.
WHAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE AT OPOLE UNIVERSITY?
A professional team of academic teachers and lecturers supports and guides the undergraduates in their intellectual growth. Students are educated in modern lecture rooms in the newly renovated historical building of Collegium Maius equipped with modern audiovisual technology and a modern computer room with several stands. The room with interpretation booths is used for interpreting classes. Our library and the reading room offer access to an extensive collection of Anglo-Saxon literature (more than 37 thousand volumes devoted to various aspects of culture and language of English speaking countries and 100 titles of journals and magazines devoted to teaching).
STUDENT MOBILITY PERSPECTIVES
Our students can enroll in an exchange programme Erasmus+ offered by the University of Opole, which allows for studying abroad for a semester or two, developing foreign language communication skills, learning about culture of a foreign country and gaining professional knowledge via a foreign language. Our partners are, among others, in Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary Spain, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Malta, Germany, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Turkey and Italy.

They may seek employment requiring advanced command of English and, depending on their choices of elective courses, knowledge of culture of English-speaking countries, or knowledge of translation theory and practice, intermediate command of Spanish or Italian, knowledge of Spanish speaking countries or Italy. Moreover, our students finish their studies with the ability to search for information in various sources, to analyze and synthesize information, and to work effectively both independently and in teams. They also understand the need to learn throughout life. They are well prepared for a career in, for example:
