Program Description
The Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) program in linguistics is individually tailored to the needs and professional goals of the student. The program combines a foundation in functional/usage-based linguistic theory with a strong preparation in empirical research methods, both in the laboratory as well as in field settings.
We have particular strengths in descriptive linguistics and language revitalization, historical/typological/areal linguistics, first and second language acquisition, second language teaching, laboratory phonology and phonetics, gesture studies, sociolinguistics and corpus linguistics. The program draws strong interdisciplinary support from related fields on the University campus including East Asian and Romance linguistics, Psychology, Neuroscience, Anthropology, and Computer Science.
