Study System

The duration of study to obtain a Bachelor's degree in English section is four academic years, divided into eight semesters, with two semesters in each academic year. Specialization in Accounting begins in the third year. The study is based on lectures and practical lessons. To graduate, the student must successfully pass the courses listed in the approved faculty curriculum, which range between 50-51 courses spread over 8 semesters.

The study in the English section  is distinguished by lower classroom density, with all lectures held in small rooms and halls that do not exceed 100 students. There is a trend to reduce the number in general sections to 80 students (for the first and second years). As for specialized sections in Accounting (third and fourth years), classroom density decreases significantly, with the number in some specializations dropping to less than 25 students. This environment allows for a high degree of interaction between students and professors, improving students' academic performance and maximizing the professors' potential.

The english section at the faculty is also taught by an elite group of distinguished professors who have received their education from prestigious universities and are highly regarded in their respective fields of expertise.
