The core objective of the study programme is to provide students who enrol in the course and complete it successfully with a thorough, broad grounding in the respective linguistic, literary and cultural traditions which, in the form of independent curricular units, make up the study programme. Together with this objective, the course aims to guarantee its students a mastery of the competences, techniques, methodologies and skills required: a) through the effective use, in written and oral communicative situations, of their mother tongue and a second language, namely English; b) through the successful confrontation with any situations, from the most simple to the most complex, which may arise from the development of a professional activity within the broad ambit of cultural and linguistic mediation, represented by the multiple facets of what is today called cultural industry (publishing, translation, media communication, cultural heritage,…).
When they complete this cycle, students should reveal: a) An in-depth and systematic knowledge of the subject matter relating to the basic scientific areas of this study cycle; b) a wide understanding and adequate command of the work techniques/methodologies pertaining to the fields of languages, literatures and cultures; c) a critical and analytical attitude towards contexts of knowledge which are described as complex, incomplete, or even contradictory; d) the capacity to synthesise flows of information in a critical, fitting manner, either to respond to problems belonging to their area of study, or in dealing with new problems, which occur in new contexts; e) the capacity to assess complex flows of information within their professional and intellectual spheres, and to defend possible alternative paths to those presented.
