DEPARTMENT OF FUNCTIONAL ENGLISH
The Department of Functional English, founded in 2000, provides students with a comprehensive understanding of both the functional and linguistic aspects of the English language. It emphasizes practical English skills that enhance everyday communication, academic pursuits, and professional endeavours.
The curriculum offers a distinctive opportunity to explore contemporary topics in the field through courses such as Translation Studies, Theatre Studies, Media Studies, Film Studies, and Creative Writing.
