Course
Course 15 credits • ENGH04
When you have finished English: continuation course (31-45), you are eligible for ENGH04 (English 46-60 credits). In this course you will learn more about English linguistics and literature, but you will also improve your English proficiency, both orally and in writing. The same goes for your English vocabulary.
The contents of the course (English 46-60, ENGH04)
This course is a very interesting mix of English proficiency, literature and linguistics. Just like your previous English courses, this course consists of a number of modules that run partly in parallel:
- History of Literature (7 credits)
- Elective course (5 credits)
- Vocabulary (3 credits)
The module called History of Literature deals with important parts of the entire history of British literature. You learn about the connections between literature, history, and culture, so this is a kind of continuation of the ENGA01 module called History and Culture, even though the main focus here is on literature, rather than culture and history. The module is examined through a final written exam.
You also get the chance to choose and take an elective course. It's normally the case that you can choose between two linguistic and two literary courses. If you are lucky, you get your first choice. Otherwise, you will get your first choice when you take English: Level 3.
Finally, there is a vocabulary module. It mainly consists of self-study and a final exam based on frequency word lists (rather than specific texts).
After the course (English 46-60, ENGH04)
This course makes you eligible for English: Level 3, which is the BA course you need in order to get a BA (Bachelor's degree) in English. Having 60 credits of English, in combination with other relevant university courses, also makes you considerably more competitive on the job market, for instance if you would like to work abroad or in companies or organisations with international profiles.
