Linguistics MA

Course Details :   

The Faculty of Humanities is a fine blend of the East and the West in that it includes traditional discipline associated with Buddhist and Asian cultures, such as Pali and Buddhist Studies, Sinhala, Tamil, Sanskrit, Hindi, Korean, Japanese and Chinese while teaching courses in modern European languages such as English, French, German and Russian.

The Department of Western Classical Culture and Christian Culture also adds another dimension to the curricula of the Faculty, providing the students with a multi-cultural choice in selecting subjects. The English Language Teaching Unit, which is attached to the Faculty of Humanities, provides an inter-Faculty service in that it conducts English courses in all the Faculties of the University. In addition to its strength as the centre of excellence in the teaching of languages and culture, the Faculty of Humanities includes the Departments of Fine Arts and Linguistics, which provide theoretical and applied training and analysis in aesthetics and language study.
