<p>This is the first part of the BA level in English, that is, the course you need to finish in order to be able to get a BA (bachelor's degree) in English. You need a BA in order to go on to get an MA (master's degree).</p><p>At Lund University you get a BA in either English linguistics or English literature.

If you haven't yet got 60 credits of English, you may apply for a waiver.
