English Language & Linguistics (Associate Professor Mie Hiramoto):
During the session, attendees will gain insights into the foundational theories and methodologies that define the field of linguistics. Learn about the cutting-edge research our faculty are engaged in. Our program not only emphasizes theoretical knowledge but also provides practical, hands-on experiences that prepare students for a wide range of careers, technology, publishing and more.

English Literature (Dr Gilbert Yeoh):
In the Literature section of the talk, we will look at the poetry of American modernist poet William Carlos Williams as well as a sample of critical theory by the theorist Mikhail Bakhtin. These examples give us a sense of the joy and pleasure of studying literature and an idea of what studying literature at the tertiary level involves. There will also be a brief look at the Literature curriculum.

Theatre & Performance Studies (Associate Professor Liang Peilin):
At the NUS Theatre and Performance Studies programme, we study theatre and performance as a practice and as a discourse for understanding a world that has become increasingly complex and performative. The programme specialises in several areas, including Asian Shakespeare, performance ethnography, theatre and fiction, applied theatre, performer training, as well as theatre and performance's intersection with disciplines such as technology, cognitive science, and healthcare. Students acquire a broad base arts training with transferrable skills that are of value to a wide range of career paths.
