Message From the Director

Istanbul Aydın University Department of English Language and Literature was established in 2007. Growing rapidly with its qualified academic staff, our department accepts Turkish and foreign students to bachelor’s, master’s, doctoral degree programs. It is an interdisciplinary program with English as the education language, including American literature, comparative literature, literary theory, criticism and linguistics, as well as English language, culture and literature. Teaching including popular culture, women's literature, media, ethnic minority studies, colonization and post-colonial studies is implemented in the department.In-class discussions, term papers prepared by the students and in-class studies are as important as the information given by the lecturers. Assessment is based on exams and classroom participation. In addition, Spanish is taught as a second foreign language in our department. Our department offers our students opportunities such as minor, double major, international exchange programs, education abroad and postgraduate education. 

At the beginning of the career opportunities waiting for the graduates of the department, the first thing that comes to mind is teaching.
