The Department of English formerly shared Nyaung Shwe Hall with the Department of Geography but now it is located in Moenae Hall, on the Main Campus of Taunggyi University.
Currently, the Department of English not only offers undergraduate and postgraduate courses in English but also provides in-service training in English for other academic departments and government organizations. We also offer translation and interpreter services to ministries and government organizations. Thus, the Department of English serves as an academic as well as a service department providing the needs of those who live in the campus as well as beyond.
