Language in multilingual and multicultural societies is the central concern of Language and Linguistics at Malmö University.
This includes a spectrum of courses offered at the Department of Culture, Language and Media (KSM) and the Faculty of Learning and Society.
We offer a BA program in English Studies is offered at the Department of Art, Culture and Communication (K3) at the Faculty of Culture and Society.
This faculty is also home to multidisciplinary research on one of Europe’s most linguistically diverse regions: the Caucasus. Apart from courses in the Georgian language and Russian, we offer area studies on the region, under the heading of Caucasus Studies.
