Bachelor [English Language and Literature] From International Islamic University Malaysia

The programme hopes to develop and nurture in students an appreciation of the English Language and the ability to think critically about the daily use of English in all spheres of life. Studying English encourages them to think laterally and analytically, consequently helping them to solve problems creatively. Specifically, it prepares students for a life in demanding professions such as teaching, editing, translating and in the areas of consultancy, services, commerce and the media. In line with the university?s mission of Islamicisation of knowledge, the courses are taught with Islam in mind. The well-rounded curriculum allows students and staff to explore their strengths and weaknesses in applying English to their life with Islam at the core of their outlook of life.
