Program Description
The Master of Arts (MA) in Linguistics is a postgraduate programme for those who want to study the science of language. It delves into the structure, evolution, and use of human language, and covers aspects such as phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics. Graduates have higher-order research and analytical skills, leading to careers in academia (often as the transition step to a PhD), language documentation and preservation, speech technology, language instruction, and forensic linguistics.
