The disciplinary studies in English consist of four primary areas of knowledge – language and skills, literature, linguistics, and didactics of English – which are studied comprehensively and in-depth, with a particular emphasis on teaching English as a second foreign language.

It is comprised of the following components: specialization studies in English (50 w-hrs.), educational studies (23 w-hrs.), core studies (14 w-hrs.), practical experience (18 w-hrs.), and skills A-B (elementary track) (7 w-hrs.).
