They are familiar with the machine and computer-aided translation systems and new trends in the development of translation technologies. The student is familiar with the basic procedures, analysis and interpretation of prose, dramatic and poetic texts. The student is able to apply linguistic and literary knowledge in a variety of cultural-artistic and pragmatic-communicative activities. They develop their linguistic culture in the first and the relevant second language. The graduate of this programme is characterised by creative and flexible thinking and is able to engage in work in the artistic and creative industries.

The employability of graduates is regularly ascertained within the study programme - through communication with graduates and by surveying and evaluating the employability of graduates at faculty level. We track the proportion of graduates who are employed in the field and outside the field. The results of the surveys are reflected in the reshaping of the curriculum to respond to changes in the labour market in terms of the employability of graduates of the study programme. Graduates of the study programme are employed as university lecturers at universities in the Slovak Republic and abroad, as scientific researchers at the Academy of Sciences in Bratislava, as well as in the field of culture and journalism.

The relevant rules on learning outcomes and student assessment and the possibilities for remedial actions are available in the documents: 

• Internal Regulation of the Faculty of Arts CU No. 11/2023- Study Regulations, Art. 11, 12, 14, 15, 29-35. 
• Internal Regulation of Comenius University No. 12/2013 - Guideline of the Rector of Comenius University Bratislava on the basic requirements of final theses, rigorous theses and habilitation theses, originality check, storing and accessibility at the Comenius University Bratislava, Art. 3(1), (2), and (4), Art. 5–8

The University and the Faculty have separate departments providing support for mobility programmes (the Department for European Projects and Erasmus+ programme of the Comenius University and the International Relations Office of Faculty of Arts CU). A separate guideline governs the operation of the organizational units of the University and the faculty:: 

• Internal Regulation No. 3/2016 – Guideline of the Rector of CU on the competence of CU Bratislava and its faculties in the framework of the European Community Erasmus+ programme. 

The flexibility of study pathways and the achievement of learning outcomes are ensured by the fact that the individual study plan of the doctoral student in the study programme is drawn up by the supervisor in cooperation with the doctoral student, taking into account the student’s specialization and the topic of the dissertation project. Students of the study programme will have the opportunity to take advantage of international mobility programmes, including the jointly supervised doctoral programme (cotutelle), as well as through inter-faculty mobility programmes and elective courses of another faculty which they will be able to enrol in based on the study contract (Internal Regulation No. 11/2023 - Study Regulations, Art. 8(6)(a) and (f)). The rules of Comenius University and its Faculty of Arts respect the transfer and recognition of credits acquired during a mobility programme. A course taken at the receiving University which is comparable in content and scope to a course taken at the sending faculty and which the student takes as part of approved academic mobility will automatically be recognized as completed (compulsory course, compulsory elective course, or elective course).  

According to the Study Regulations of Faculty of Arts CU, Art. 17(1), the student has the right to apply for a change of study programme within the same field of study at Comenius University, thus ensuring the possibility of flexible study pathways. Subsequently, Art. 18 of the Study Regulations of Faculty of Arts CU regulates the conditions for the recognition of studies and parts of studies completed in the past, specifying both the length of the period and the level of assessment that allows the obtained assessment to be recognised. 

According to the Internal Regulation of Faculty of Arts CU No. 11/2023, Art. 19, the Faculty of Arts CU allows students to transfer credits acquired while completing part of their studies at another higher education institution in the Slovak Republic or at a higher education institution abroad (student mobility) in the number of credits accumulated by the student pursuant to § 4(3) of the Decree on credit system study.

Comenius University Bratislava cooperates with the Support Centre for Visually Impaired Students, which provides services in processing study literature and providing computer technology. In recent years, the Faculty has worked intensively on removing barriers from its buildings, which has greatly accommodated students with special needs (adjusted entrances to individual buildings and elevator access).

The library is the largest library and information workplace at Comenius University, it fulfils the function of an educational and scientific-information workplace. The central workplaces of the library are located in the annex of the University on Múzejná Street. Readers have access to a central lending library, a study room for textbooks, and a reading room for journals. During the semester, the library is open until 6 pm. A comprehensive reconstruction and modernization of the reading areas were carried out in 2009. The modernization of the premises has significantly improved the conditions for full-time study; the number of study spots in the study room has doubled (from the original 30 to 64), and the collection at hand for full-time study has been significantly expanded (from the original 3,500 books to 9,000). The construction modifications to the lending library have allowed for increasing the handling and storage space for outside-of-library borrowings, expanding the reading 

room for journals, and placing computers for students. All reading areas offer wi-fi connections, power sockets, and self-service photocopiers. The library stock consists of approximately 500,000 library units. Annual growth in recent years has been fairly stable, ranging from 7,000 to 9,000 library units. The Library subscribes to 249 journals; in addition to traditional print periodicals, library users have access to full texts of approximately 48,000 electronic journals and approximately 440,000 electronic books, which are available via the Comenius University Academic Library website.

Handbook for students – (section 4.8 and 4.9) 

The students of the study programme are provided with access and support to participate in domestic and international mobility and internships. In this respect, students are assisted by the International Relations Office, which provides administrative support and advice on student exchanges and internships and on the promotion of international mobility. Within Comenius University, the Erasmus+ Main Office at Comenius University is available to students. The most significant share of student exchanges is accounted for by mobility under the Erasmus+ programmes, scholarships awarded by the Ministry of Education, Science, Research and Sport of the Slovak Republic on the basis of bilateral agreements and scholarships under the CEEPUS programme (Central European Exchange Programme for University Studies). Mobility also takes place on the basis of other types of agreements: bilateral agreements between universities concluded at university or faculty level, intergovernmental and international interdepartmental agreements in education (administered by the Slovak Academic Information Agency), the National Scholarship Programme, International Visegrad Fund scholarships, and individual scholarships. The position of the University and its faculties in relation to Erasmus+ mobility 

programmes at CU is regulated by the Internal Regulation of CU No. 3/2016 on the competence of CU and its faculties within the European Community Erasmus+ programme. In connection with the implementation of international mobility, the Faculty has established a system of recognition of courses and transfer of credits acquired at foreign universities (Article 19 of the Internal Regulation of Faculty of Arts CU No.11/2023, Study Regulations of Faculty of Arts CU).

The Admissions Committee applies a point system in the evaluation of applicants and uses a uniform procedure to ensure objectivity, fairness and equality of opportunity by using a uniform form of the admissions record, based on which the Dean decides whether the applicant shall or shall not be admitted.
