Description
This course is obligatory for students in the master's programme in languages and linguistics specialising in English. It can also be an elective course for other students within the same programme.
Students who have finished the BA course in English (ENGK03) can also take this course as a fee-standing course.
The course can be an elective course within ENGX64 (English: Linguistic specialisation (91-120 credits)).
The contents of the course
This is a course where you study English grammar and how it is described in varius standard grammars. This way you get a much better and deeper understanding of things you already know. You also learn things a bout grammar that you haven't relayy thought about before.
Moreover you get a chance to compare various standard grammars to see where they agree and where they have chosen to describe what apperas to be the same phenomena differently.
Interesting questions to ask could involve the degree to which the standard grammars are influenced by certain theories or grammar, to what extent they relate their descriptions to naturally-occurring linguistic data and statistics, what their ambitions are, etc.
After the course
After this course you will know much more about the English language and its grammar. This will make it much easier for you to talk about English grammar, for instance in front of a class of pupils or students.

How to apply
Lund University uses a national application system run by University Admissions in Sweden. It is only possible to apply during the application periods: October–January for autumn semester and June–August for spring semester.
Extended application deadline
Sometimes the application deadline is extended for a specific programme or course. In these cases you will find the message "open for late application" by the programme/course information on universityadmissions.se. You apply with the usual application steps. As long as this message is showing, it is possible to apply, but late applications are processed in order of date, so it is still important to apply as soon as possible. Please note that if the programme/course does not have an extended deadline, it is not possible to apply late.
First or Second Admission Round?
All international students are encouraged to apply to the First admission round. This round takes place many months before the start of a semester and gives students the time they need to pay their tuition fees, apply for and receive their residence permit (if required), find housing, etc.
The Second admission round is an alternative for students from EU/EEA countries as they do not need a residence permit. Non-EU/EEA students will most likely not have enough time to obtain their permit before the start of the semester. However, even EU/EEA students are advised to apply during the First admission round, as some programmes can be applied for only in the January round. Also, this provides applicants with an admission decision much earlier, which is helpful in making decisions about their studies.
