MA Linguistics
Linguistics is the scientific study of language.
The MA in Linguistics at York offers a route into linguistic study for those who want to apply and develop their critical analysis and learning skills from other subjects to questions that are central to the study of language. You will engage with both theoretical and empirical approaches, and develop the tools to investigate linguistic questions as a researcher in your own right. Such questions include:
- What are the properties of the sound systems of language?
- What is grammatical structure, and what is the extent of cross-linguistic structural variation?
- How is language used to convey meaning?
- How do social structures affect language?
