Purdue's Department of Linguistics offers a wide range of courses leading to the M.A. and Ph.D. degrees. M.A. and Ph.D. curricula encourage students to tailor their linguistics studies to their interdisciplinary interests. We offer a thorough grounding in the foundations of linguistics and opportunities to develop research and teaching skills, while also allowing students to specialize in an area of interest.<br><br>One of the main strengths of the department is the analysis of bilingual language systems. The department provides advanced training in the analysis and characterization of the linguistic and psycholinguistic development of bilingualism, broadly construed, in young children and adults. How does the bilingual mind process, develop, and maintain multiple linguistic systems What characteristics do these systems have and why, how do they affect each other and relate to each other in the lifespan of bilingual speakers What tools can be used to assess the degree of language acquistion and to facilitate language learning These are vital questions in current linguistics research and the Purdue Department of Linguistics is uniquely situated to address them.
