At a time when English is the common language in nearly every domain, from science to industry to education to popular culture, it is hard to deny that a high proficiency in English is needed to participate fully in the world today.
Bachelor of English is a research-based and internationally competitive three-year programme, taught by highly qualified subject specialists, that combines the study of English language, culture and literature. Classes engage a variety of exciting topics, taught with a deep appreciation of history and in a lively, communal atmosphere.

The Bachelor of English opens several opportunities, including continuing with graduate work, or within the professional spheres of travel and tourism, diplomacy and the cultural sector, both in Norway and the wider world.
