Polish philology
In 2000, Polish philology received the quality certificate granted by the University Committee of Accreditation.
Polish philology students can choose between two separate specialities: literary studies and linguistics or "Polish literature and the Polish language in European civilisation". Both of them include classes in the history and theory of literature, contemporary literature, cultural anthropology, knowledge of culture, the contemporary Polish language and the history of the Polish language. Additionally, the speciality "Polish literature and the Polish language in European civilisation" (offered on a full-time basis only) offers classes in philosophy, history, spiritual history, the history of music, and art history. They help to determine the relations between European and Polish literature.
