Highlights

The M.A. in Linguistics focuses on investigating language from both theoretical and functional approaches
The dynamic curriculum combines core studies in the structure of language (phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics) with current approaches in sociolinguistics, language acquisition, psycholinguistics, language contact, world Englishes, endangered languages and language documentation, discourse analysis, and identity studies
The carefully designed curriculum provides students with a solid foundation in the study and understanding of human language as a convergence of genetic, psychological and social systems and networks
Students are trained to critically examine and analyze the world within and around them—skills that can be applied to teaching, curriculum development, corporate cultures, legal contexts, intercultural communication, forensics, artificial intelligence, publishing, counseling, speech pathology, and child development
Through coursework and hands-on research, students gain knowledge of:-
the nature and structure of language
principles and methods of language analysis and documentation
relationships between language, mind, and cognition
the nature and process of language acquisition and multilingualism
relationships between language and cultural, national, social, and personal identity
the role of language as a mediator of intercultural understanding
