What will you learn?

The aim of the study programme is to provide young researchers, or experts in the decision-making sphere (i.e. conceptualists in language or foreign language education, etc.) with high-quality academic preparation based on very good traditions of domestic and international theoretical and empirical research relevant to educational policy and practice in the field of foreign language education.

The concept of the doctoral study programme Didactics of Foreign Language also pursues objectives of a more general nature, in particular the need to support the formation of a common theoretical background of subject didactics as a qualitatively new approach to (general) didactic thinking and also contribute to ongoing processes of teacher professionalisation.

Career opportunities

The graduate can find employment as a researcher in educational research institutes, national and international educational institutions, university lecturer, consultant in the field of language education, creator and assessor of foreign language coursebooks and other curricular and didactic teaching materials, creator of language education concepts.
