What career advice would you give to a student interested in studying English?
People will tell you that English is a dead-end field unless you want to become a teacher. Completing a degree with the University of º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ is a rigorous and rewarding adventure which will open doors regardless of what field you study. If English is your passion, then follow your heart - as long as you work hard, there will always be opportunities post-graduation. Many of my university friends loved the course so much that they’ve further completed their post-graduate at the University of º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½, and are now working towards their PhD.
