Summary/Abstract: The paper is a review of the undergraduate elective linguistics courses at the English Department of the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Niš. The review presents the elective linguistics courses offered in the Accreditations 2008, 2014 and 2021. The first aim is to show which theoretical and applied linguistics elective courses are offered in the three curricula. Another aim is to give a brief overview of the course descriptions, note the changes in them across the curricula and compare the ratio between the elective theoretical and applied linguistics courses in the curricula. It is evident that the numbers of both elective theoretical and applied linguistics courses rise in each subsequent accreditation. This increasing number of elective linguistics courses provides students with further opportunities to choose the courses that agree with their interests.
