Linguistics is the scientific study of human language. Courses explore the principles governing the structure of natural languages, how languages are acquired by children and adults, the role of language in human cognition and social interaction, and how languages change over time.
The College of Liberal Arts (CLA) prepares students to become independent and original thinkers, innovators in their chosen fields, creators of meaning in their lives and in their life’s work, and productive citizens and leaders in their communities and the world. Our broad range of studies and engagement experiences provides you with an extraordinary wealth of opportunities to expand, experiment, and explore.
