It has four major fields of study: linguistics studies, studies in British and American literature, studies of Teaching English as a Second Language(TESOL), and cultural studies. Its first objective of education is to help students to have a good command of the English language and grasp the vast cultural phenomena of England, America and other English-speaking countries. We focus our education on enhancing students’ professional sensibility not only of British and American language itself but also of the British and American cultural phenomena, ancient and modern, so that they can be specialists in British and American language and culture.
