English Language and Literature Department

Hello, I'm Berfe Savut. I am a third year student at Istanbul Topkapı University, Department of English Language and Literature. In our department, we conduct researches with the help of Philosophy, Psychology, History and other social sciences by considering the historical process of English Literature. In addition, we write academic articles by examining authors who have contributed to English Literature, their works or people who have inspired English Literature. In our department, we take courses in many fields such as Comparative Literature, Modern Literature, Research Methods, from mythology to Shakespeare. There are no courses in the Department of English Language and Literature that require us to use its laboratories and workshops. In order to graduate from the Department of English Language and Literature, we prepare a graduation project to be submitted in the fourth year. After graduating from the Department of English Language and Literature, we can work in many fields in the private sector and public institutions. My interest towards English since my childhood led me to this department. That's why I chose the Department of English Language and Literature. I chose Istanbul Topkapı University because of its academic staff and its location. After class, we spend time in cafes, gyms and libraries on our campus. After graduating from the Department of English Language and Literature, I want to do a master's degree in the International Relations Program and work in the private sector. Students who will choose the Department of English Language and Literature must be people who are open to innovations, love to read and write, and are fond of literature. I would recommend students who will prefer Istanbul Topkapı University and the Department of English Language and Literature to research our academic staff and the social opportunities offered by the school. I wish success to the candidates who will choose the Department of English Language and Literature at Istanbul Topkapı University.
