Something for you?
- We offer a challenging and exciting programme that brings together the study of language, culture, literature, society and history.
- Full immersion in English, with a strong focus on language acquisition courses throughout the programme.
- A dynamic international teaching staff who are leading scholars in the field of English Language and Culture.
English Language and Culture allows you to study all aspects of the English language as it has evolved across the centuries. At the same time, you immerse yourself in the culture and literature of Great Britain and other English-language regions. You study the classics of high and popular culture - Shakespeare, Stevenson, Downton Abbey, Little Britain, and much more. To become an expert in the field of English language, linguistics and culture, you will also have to immerse yourself in the culture, social relations, habits and eccentricities of the people for whom (British) English is their native language.
English Language and Culture has two tracks: English Language and Culture and American Studies. If you are interested in American Studies, please check the American Studies programme.
Kastu feedback about the program after the visit
- At RU students have to really like to do research, to write and to analyze, because most of the assignments are written.
- RU has free writing classes at which students can attend if they struggle with academic writing (most of the students attends them).
- Students mostly can learn Dutch for free and get 50% discount to learn other languages like Spanish, Chinese or other 15 languages.
- Easy to find a job as a student – lots of shops, bars, restaurants. Student who gave me a tour said all his friends found a job in 2-3 months.

- Visi, kurie yra pabaigę mokyklą ir į šį universitetą stoja jau turėdami Brandos atestatą, kartu su juo - turi pateikti ir pažymių išrašą su 11 klasės metiniais vidurkiais. To reikia, nes universitetas nori matyti paskutinių 2 metų pažymius.
