The aim of the study programmes is to enable students to acquire the knowledge and skills which are necessary for performing jobs in the domain of education, translation, culture, publishing, public relations, international partnership and all of the fields related to English language, literature and culture.

Apart from theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of English language, teaching methodology, literary and cultural studies, competent professors and assistants motivate and develop our students’ capability for team work, creativity, flexibility and managing quality communication. The content and structure of the study programmes are in accordance with contemporary processes in the study of language, literature, and culture. Teaching is performed interactively and dynamically, in small groups, whereby the optimal effects in the teaching process are achieved. The Faculty of Foreign Languages organises a number of extracurricular activities, creative workshops, translation sections and guest lectures, where students are able to improve their talents as well as acquire additional and broader knowledge.

We dedicate great attention to academic publishing, which is an activity carried out in several directions. A new edition of significant academic monographs by our professors was established in 2014 under the name of “Novi vidici” [New perspectives]. Since 2012, as a result of the traditional annual academic conference, wherein we strive to connect researchers from different academic and educational centres and countries, 8 books of proceedings have been published. The Faculty has been publishing Reči: Journal of Language, Literature and Culture since 2009, and the journal is categorised by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development of the Republic of Serbia as a significant academic journal (M52). It is our special pleasure to feature the products of young researchers’ work in our publications.

Within its plan and programme, the Faculty of Foreign Languages at Alfa BK University offers study programmes after which students acquire the title of the Bachelor of Philology and Master of Philology.
We are especially proud of the fact that our Faculty provides high-level professional and academic eligibility of students, while simultaneously directing their attention towards the development of practical skills and knowledge, which are crucial to young people’s competence on the business market and in order for them to reach their desired work positions as soon as possible. A specificity of our study programmes can be seen in the opportunity for the students to expand their interests onto the fields of business English language, computer sciences, managing human resources and the culture of business negotiation, which helps them to become successful professionals who work in the country and abroad, not only as teachers, translators and court interpreters, but also in successful companies, as managers and consultants, with an excellent apprehension of the English language.

Faculty of Management in Sport

From the very foundation of the Faculty, the teaching process was carried out in continuity by the most eminent professors in their fields, and well-known domestic and foreign sports experts used to join them and give invited lecturers as well. Our professors are successfully taking part in prestigious world science and professional conferences and in that way, apart from collecting the latest scientific knowledge, they promote our Faculty and our University.

Taking into account that our job does not end by simply transferring the knowledge to the students, but that this University should represent a significant factor in modernization of technology of professional work in the field of sport, for more than a decade the Faculty of Management in Sport organizes an international scientific conference, which has been recognized by International Olympic Committee as a very important one since the last year. The conference is included in their calendar of events and it is the only scientific conference with that type of recognition in the region. So far there have been over 1000 participants who have presented the results of their research and more than 100 of them were the most eminent world experts and lecturers in the field of sports management who shared their knowledge with large number of guests which attended our conferences.

The need to publish and make available scientific and professional work of our teachers, but also of our students, motivated us to start publishing a Journal under the title Sports Management. This publication represents one and only professional Journal of this type. It is specifically focused on the issues related to the field of sports management in the country.

In order to do the dissemination of professional and the latest technological information in the field of sports management, we organize professional panel discussions under the title “Sports, education, spirituality“ which make our Faculty unique and recognizable both inside and outside of the field of sports. The title itself, but also the participants, point out that we are dealing with the whole range of multidisciplinary issues. Special quality of these professional conferences is the method of work, which is characterized by interaction, orientation on concrete, current problems and the experience acquired by dedicated work and life in sports and for sport. The best illustration of the importance and quality of these panel discussions are their participants such as Dragoslav Šekularac, Milutin Šoškić, Svetlana Ceca Kitić, Dušan Savić, Dejan Tomašević, Novica Veličković, Vuk Rašović, Mateja Kežman, Dejan Savić, Živko Gocić, Andrija Prlainović, Duško and Gojko Pjetlović, Slavoljub Muslin and many others who have strongly contributed to the development of Serbian sport.
