The University of Florida provides a Ph.D. program in Linguistics, where research plays a central role. Each doctoral candidate must design and execute an original research initiative guided by a supervisory committee, culminating in a dissertation.
The Ph.D. requires completion of 90 coursework credits, including four Core courses (12 credits) and three Depth courses (9 credits). The Depth requirement aims to help students gain specialized expertise in specific linguistics subfields. A course qualifies for Depth credit if it expands upon concepts from a prior related course. Note that courses applied to other degree requirements (such as Core or language requirements) cannot count toward Depth credits but may serve as prerequisites for Depth-eligible courses.
