Abstract
The aim of the discipline is to acquaint students with the major specialisations on the Linguistics degree programme and to raise their awareness of some fields where Linguistics finds its practical implications. The module "Intercultural Communication" provides the understanding of the theory and practice of intercultural communication and develops students' cross-cultural competence. After completing the module the students will become aware of the basic principles and concepts of intercultural corporate communication, they will be able to analyse processes and tendencies in a variety of sociocultural contexts. After completing the module "Translation and Interpretation" students will understand what makes translation a science and how it can be studied on the basis of communication and information theories. They will become aware of professional requirements to translators, their ethical principles and professional organisations. The module "Language Teaching" gives students an understanding of how languages are learnt and taught throughout human life. After its completion students will know the basics aspects of language teaching methodology, the basic aspects and stages of developmental psychology, the requirements to a language class and the criteria for its evaluation.
