Department Summary

The Department of Linguistics, an academic unit of the College of Arts and Sciences, provides undergraduate and graduate degrees.

Given this interest, we are also invested in the practical and interdisciplinary aspects of language and its use; that is, in its normal and disordered acquisition, teaching, maintenance, revitalization, loss, and also in its social impact and interrelation with social structures and institutions.
