At Worcester, you will study the English language as is actually used in written and spoken forms. You will be able to examine the linguistic choices we make in all levels of analysis (phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics/pragmatics). The emphasis will be on the social aspect of language and you will be working with real data (speech and texts). As part of your studies, you will familiarise yourself with quantitative and qualitative methods of analyzing data, which is very important for most graduate jobs. Additionally, you will be given the opportunity to obtain the Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults (CELTA Award; subject to meeting specific criteria at the end of your second year) as part of your degree and you will become familiar with the theory and practice of applied language teaching. This means that you will be readily equipped to teach the English Language to speakers of other languages at home or abroad. Upon graduation, you will also be eligible to apply for a PGCE and teach the English language in education. This is a course that examines language in theory and in practice and it is appropriate for students who want to understand how language is used and how it is taught!
