PhD in Linguistics - Phonology and Phonetics in Cambridge United States | Massachusetts Institute of Technology

The core curriculum in the standard linguistics track equips students with foundational knowledge to explore key issues in phonology and phonetics, using conventional research techniques like native speaker interviews and analysis of dictionaries, grammars, and textual sources. The following academic pathway expands this methodological toolkit while examining how sound systems interact with other linguistic components (syntax, meaning, word structure) and how they're influenced by factors like speech perception, articulation, and language learning.
