Are you interested in how children acquire language, how the skills of second-language speakers develop, how various language disorders can be diagnosed and treated, or how social or cultural environments interact with language?
In our program, you’ll gain a strong foundation in linguistics, hands-on fieldwork, clinical observation, teaching practice and practical workshops to supplement your academic courses. We offer a choice of three majors:
Hearing Sciences or Speech and Language Sciences: In these majors, you’ll learn about basic science and communication processes, including the anatomy and physiology of speech and hearing, acoustics, linguistics, child language development and selected disorders of human communication.
Applied Linguistics/Teaching English as a Subsequent Language (TESL): In this major, you’ll study theories and methodologies relevant to learning and teaching English as a subsequent language.
