About the course

How do children actually learn how to speak? How do people produce sounds? How are concepts like race and gender reflected in language? How do computers process human language? From phonetics and phonology to semantics and syntax, these are just a few of the topics you can explore as a linguistics major. Here, you'll study the structure, function and meaning of language—including the option to concentrate on a specific language and take advanced courses in that subject area.
