MA Language and Linguistics
Language and linguistics is a discipline with links to all other areas of study, since humans use language in all facets of life.
Our MA specialises in social, historical, and theoretical approaches to language and linguistics. You'll investigate complex real-world language problems in different cultural contexts and time periods, alongside exploring the foundational mental structures and processes underlying language. You can also study literary linguistics and examine a range of approaches including cognitive poetics, corpus stylistics and narratology.
You can choose to take modules from other related fields, such as TESOL and applied linguistics within the School of English, or courses from other departments across the University which link to your particular area of linguistics.
The MA in Language and Linguistics is one of three linguistics MAs offered in the School of English. It's designed for students from language and linguistics backgrounds interested in developing expertise and skills as a researcher in these fields.
