The MAppLing program offers comprehensive study in Applied Linguistics, covering diverse subjects such as conducting research on second and additional language use, learning, and instruction.

Globally respected, the University's Applied Linguistics program maintains an international focus that aligns with New Zealand's distinctive role in the Asia-Pacific area. Alumni have pursued careers in English education and academic leadership both locally and internationally.
This program continues the tradition of six decades of graduate-level TESOL and Applied Linguistics education at Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington.
Our faculty consists of world-renowned scholars who combine their expertise as language educators with cutting-edge research to connect theoretical frameworks with classroom applications.
