| Description | Linguistics explores how language works, from sounds and sentence structure to meaning and communication. You’ll study how languages are formed, how they change over time and how people acquire language from childhood. The program connects language to areas like psychology, culture and technology, helping you understand how we communicate and think. You’ll also explore topics such as sociolinguistics, language diversity and artificial intelligence. If you’re curious about how language shapes human interaction and want to build strong analytical skills, this program offers a flexible path to careers in health, education, communication, technology and beyond. | | |
