English is the language of globalisation. It is the mother tongue of around 350 million people, and an even larger number speak English as a second language. It is the language that enables you to communicate across borders, whether about culture or commerce. For many years, English-speaking countries such as the UK and the USA have largely been responsible for setting the global agenda, but new English-speaking countries like India are becoming increasingly influential.Today, the private job market, public institutions and PhD degree programmes require English language skills and knowledge of the English-speaking world. You acquire these competences in the Master’s degree in English. In this degree programme, you use English at a high international level and gain in-depth knowledge of the history, culture and social conditions of the English-speaking world.Insight into an entire cultureDuring your Bachelor’s degree programme, you pursued your interest in English-speaking countries and the English language and in the process became familiar with many different topics.
