语言学哲学博士-语言，国际关系和社会组织（跨学科）

对话语，互动语言学和社会文化语言学（包括社会语言学和语言人类学）感兴趣的学生会发现，毕业生对语言，互动和社会组织（LISO）的重视是其博士学位的重要补充。程序。LISO汇集了语言学，社会学和教育学方面的教职员工和研究生，他们共同认识到语言作为人类行为和社会组织的基本资源的重要性。LISO的教职员工和研究生在其自然发生的互动环境中进行语言使用和其他交流行为的研究。LISO的语言学家主要依靠社交互动的视频和音频记录，研究以下问题：语法结构是如何从交流需求中产生的，诸如手势的具体化交流是如何与语言互动的，以及在
Students interested in discourse, interactional linguistics, and sociocultural linguistics (including sociolinguistics and linguistic anthropology) will find the graduate emphasis in Language, Interaction, and Social Organization (LISO) a valuable addition to their Ph.D. program. LISO brings together faculty and graduate students in linguistics, sociology, and education who share a recognition of the importance of language as a fundamental resource for human action and social organization. LISO faculty and graduate students conduct research on language use and other communicative action in their naturally occurring interactional contexts. Relying primarily on video and audio recordings of social interaction, linguists in LISO examine such issues as how grammatical structures emerge from communicative needs, how embodied communication such as gesture interacts with language, and how broader social phenomena like identity and power are produced within interaction. Members of LISO study informal conversational interaction in a variety of languages and cultures as well as such institutional contexts as day care centers, classrooms, and the media. LISO participants explore a variety of theoretical and methodological approaches that can be brought to bear in working with discourse data, such as conversation analysis, ethnography, corpus linguistics, and other perspectives. The LISO proseminar and the affiliated LISO Research Focus Group host a series of events annually, including data sessions, research presentations by invited outside speakers and by LISO faculty and graduate students, and a student-run conference held each spring, which is organized in alternate years by UCSB and by LISO's counterpart at UCLA, CLIC<br>Students who do not already have a master's degree should apply to the M.A./Ph.D. program, those with an M.A. degree should apply directly to the Ph.D. program.
