About Linguistics
About Linguistics
The aim of the graduate program in Linguistics at 成人VR视频 is to train researchers in core areas of theoretical linguistics (phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics) as well as experimental linguistics. Research in experimental areas deals with theoretical questions in light of evidence from another domain (language acquisition, neurolinguistics, processing, language variation, and change). Students have access to a rich research landscape in cognitive science; for example, most members of the Department are associated with the Centre for Research on Brain, Language and Music (CRBLM). The Department has two labs for conducting experiments, each fitted with a soundproof booth. Members of the Department also have access to other facilities through the CRBLM. We normally fund all full-time graduate students in good standing; our funding package covers living expenses, tuition, and fees. M.A. students are funded for one year and eight months, and Ph.D. students for five years.
| Master of Arts (M.A.); Linguistics (Non-Thesis) (45 credits) |
|---|
| We offer an M.A. (non-thesis) degree in Linguistics. The M.A. involves intensive coursework in year 1, followed by additional coursework and completion of a major research paper in year 2. This program is intended for students who wish to gain coursework and research experience in Linguistics beyond the B.A. level. After completion of the M.A., students may choose to continue on to a Ph.D. or pursue a career in a related field. |
| Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.); Linguistics |
| We offer a Ph.D. degree in Linguistics. We offer two streams at the Ph.D. level: theoretical and experimental. The Ph.D. degree involves intensive coursework in year 1, additional coursework and completion of two evaluation papers in years 2 and 3, and thesis research and writing in years 4 and 5. This program is principally intended for students who wish to pursue a career in academia. |
| Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.); Linguistics 鈥� Language Acquisition |
| The Language Acquisition Program (LAP) is a cross-disciplinary option available to Ph.D. students in Communication Sciences and Disorders, Linguistics, Psychology, and Second Language Education who intend to pursue graduate studies, including writing their thesis, in language acquisition. In addition to meeting the degree requirements for Linguistics, students must complete four interdisciplinary LAP seminars, two graduate-level courses in language acquisition (one from outside the student鈥檚 home department), a course in statistics, and they must have a faculty member from outside their home department on their thesis committee. Information about this option is available from the Department and on the following website: . |
