Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds, and peace and blessings be upon Prophet Mohammed, The Seal of Prophets and Messengers.
The Department of Languages and Translation (English Program) is one of the biggest departments at the University College of Umluj. The Department focuses on three main sides: First: The Linguistic side focuses on all the linguistic aspects of English such as Phonetics, Linguistics, Language Acquisition, Grammar, etc... aiming to produce a graduate who is able to make good and effective use of English. Second: The Literary side focuses on genres of English and American literatures like poetry, drama, novel and short story, as well as theoretical and practical literary criticism. This side helps students be acquainted with different cultures and expand their horizons in dealing with the Other. Third: The Translation side focuses on producing a graduate who can, professionally, translate different texts in all fields. In conclusion, I pray Allah, the Almighty, to grant success to students of Languages and Translation Department.
