Abstract
Due to the fact that English language has been widely used as a lingua franca during the last fifty years, it has established a strong base to teach English as a foreign language (FL). In Turkey, however, such studies have increased in the last decade. The aims of this descriptive study are to compare the postgraduate programmes on teaching Turkish and English as a FL and to evaluate the similarities and differences between Turkish (Istanbul University, Dokuz Eylul University, Yildiz Teknik University) and British (Lancaster University, Newcastle University, University of Birmingham) universities in terms of course names, course credits, and course variation.
