The MSc TESOL and Intercultural Communication degree is designed for those who intend to pursue a career in teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL). It’s also suitable for those who currently work in this field but wish to enhance professional knowledge and skills and improve career prospects.
The course addresses questions about the learning, teaching and use of English by speakers of other languages from an intercultural communication perspective. It draws on the expertise of educationalists, linguists, and literature/culture scholars.

Recognising that the place of English is evolving rapidly in an increasingly complex multilingual and multicultural world, you’ll be equipped with the theoretical and practical skills to teach English to learners with a wide range of social, cultural and communicative goals.
