English Minor
The most commonly spoken language in the world, English is the language of media, the internet, business, science, computers, diplomacy, tourism and more. Command over the English language does more than give you culture and style – it opens up a world of possibilities for your future.

For a more in-depth study, ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ also offers an English major, which has seven tracks, including creative writing, film and literature.
