Linguistics is the scientific examination of language's intricate systems. This field encompasses phonology, phonetics, morphology, syntax, and semantics, studying both modern and ancient languages from synchronic and diachronic perspectives. It explores linguistic evolution across extended timeframes, combining comparative methods for reconstructing historical languages with detailed interpretive analysis of individual ancient tongues. Learners can develop deep understanding of the phonetics, grammatical structures, and lexicons of languages such as ancient Greek, Latin, Sanskrit, Classical Armenian, Gothic, Old English, Old Church Slavic, and more.

Qualification Requirements

An applicant's degree(s) need not be in Linguistics, but coursework or experience relevant to Linguistics is strongly preferred.

Applicants with a bachelor's or master's degree unrelated to linguistics may apply for either an MA or Ph.D., but admission to the Ph.D. program for such applicants demands exemplary qualifications.

Successful applicants for the M.A. and Ph.D. programs typically have undergraduate GPAs well above 3.0.

While there is no official minimum score required for admission, international applicants who wish to be funded by the department must possess a speaking score of 26 (TOEFL) or 7.5 (IELTS).
