Choose your specialization(s)/minors now
First-year students of the English and American Studies BA and other BA should choose and register their specializations/minors now.
English and American specializations/minors have to be registered by each first-year student in Neptun. Students of other BA programmes can choose from various minor programmes.

General information

All BA programmes require 180 credits to complete to be able to graduate. The 180 credits must be the ones described in the programmes’ curricula.

Each BA curriculum (study unit list) contains a 50-credit specialisation module. You can choose the 50-credit module in the curriculum, or choose a so called Minor programme. The Minor is a 50-credit package of another study programme.

The specialisations and minors must be started in the 2nd year of the BA studies, except for some programmes (more information on the Faculty website).

Therefore, students must choose the specialisation or minor by the end of the first year, or earlier. The application for the programmes in Neptun is in May-June every academic year.

If you are interested in taking a minor instead of a specialization from your study programme, please check the MINOR PAGE on the Faculty website + contact your international or study coordinators for further discussion.
