About The Graduate Program

Middle East Technical University-Northern Cyprus Campus
Master of Arts in English Language Teaching

The MA Program in English Language Teaching aims to provide students with a firm foundation in the cultural, theoretical, and applied aspects of English Language Teaching. The program is designed around three major academic objectives: to foster cultural and contextual knowledge of ELT and English language learners; to instruct students in advanced ELT pedagogies and practices; and to improve interactive English language instruction across diverse instructional mediums. Graduates will develop their capabilities as adaptive and creative thinkers and be equipped with strong academic research skills and superior theoretical and practical knowledge of English language teaching.

The Master’s Degree in English Language Teaching is offered with a thesis option only. In this full-time program, students must complete three required courses, five elective courses, and write a Master’s Thesis. Upon the successful completion of the requirements of the program, the Master’s Degree in English Language Teaching will be awarded.

This is a two-year, full-time program. However, courses are generally scheduled in the evenings to accommodate daytime work and teaching schedules. Part-time enrollment is NOT available.

* MA in English Language Teaching Program will not accept students for 2019-2020 Academic Year.
