Overview
The Department of English Language and Literature is one of the
largest departments in the Faculty of Arts. It aims at providing quality liberal
arts education to young people through its various degree
programmes. The uniqueness of the Department lies in its multi-disciplinary
character as reflected in the undergraduate and postgraduate programmes that it
offers.
Our staff takes an innovative and humanistic approach to programme
design and programme development. Students are encouraged to participate in
extracurricular activities as well as in programme review and programme planning. It
is believed that through students' active involvement in such activities and in
other activities such as student society committee work, peer counselling
programmes, academic week planning, overseas exchange programmes, and overseas
work attachment scheme, students may develop their leadership
skills, independent thinking, communication skills, and organisation ability.
