English Language Education
Greetings, I'm Selami Aydın, the head of the Department of Foreign Languages Education at Istanbul Medeniyet University's Faculty of Educational Sciences. Our department consists of two main branches: the English Language Education Department and the French Language Education Department. Specifically, within the English Language Education Department, we offer a four-year undergraduate program in English language teaching.
Our program encompasses courses from three different dimensions. Firstly, we have courses in educational sciences. Secondly, we provide theoretical and applied courses on teaching English. Lastly, we offer vocational and general culture-enhancing courses. Foreign language education is inherently focused on interaction and communication. While special equipment is not necessary for foreign language teaching, technological support is considered important based on existing literature. Fortunately, our department provides excellent technological resources. In-class interaction and communication also play a significant role in our students' language learning and teaching processes.
As part of our current undergraduate program, students undergo internship training at various primary and common level schools affiliated with the Ministry of National Education, including teaching practice and school practices. Graduation does not require a separate project. Through agreements with various universities, our department facilitates exchange programs for students in European Union countries. Similarly, we welcome students from foreign universities to join our department. Our students have the opportunity to study abroad for a certain period or an academic year.
We have plans to organize scientific events in the near future. Additionally, we have TÜBİTAK-supported project studies and activities open to all undergraduate students in Turkey. After graduation, our students can work as English teachers. They are well-prepared to teach at various levels of the education system under the Ministry of National Education. Furthermore, they have the option to pursue postgraduate education in different universities and departments, with the possibility of becoming academics. Some of our students also work as translators or in various sectors.
Our faculty members are committed to providing close attention and communication to students who face difficulties in their studies. Upon completing four years of education, our graduates receive undergraduate diplomas. However, being in Istanbul offers distinct advantages. Studying at a university in Istanbul can be considered equivalent to a second diploma due to the city's history, culture, and natural beauty. We recommend prospective students to thoroughly explore our university's website and the detailed information available about our department. They can find comprehensive information about the department and international events. We encourage students to read and compare this information with other universities before making their decisions. Furthermore, contacting our current students will provide accurate and complete insights.
We extend our best wishes to students who will be taking the university entrance exam. We eagerly anticipate welcoming you to Istanbul Medeniyet University's Faculty of Educational Sciences, Department of Foreign Language Education.
