Language Studies
This program provides the opportunity for students to explore the field of linguistics from an interdisciplinary perspective. The framework is based on the study of the fundamentals of linguistic inquiry and discourse. An individual program can be designed around advanced topics in general linguistics, a second and third language, the English language, or the field of communication. A major in Language Studies can prepare students for graduate work and careers in many areas, among them linguistics, second/foreign language teaching (including English as a Second Language), communication, anthropology, as well as neighboring disciplines such as psycholinguistics, and sociolinguistics. Note: Students desiring certification in a foreign language or ESL should contact the respective departments for information on those programs.
