语言学学士（荣誉）学位

在尝试学习另一种语言，观察儿童如何学习第一语言或见证语言障碍的影响之前，我们倾向于将自己的能力产生并理解语言是理所当然的。语言学是对语言能力，如何获得，如何使用以及如何受损的研究。因为言语对于我们的生存至关重要，因此它是一门有趣而又有意义的研究课题。本课程是许多职业的理想背景，特别是在教学和护理行业的职业，以及计算机和电信等更多“高科技”领域。语言学（荣誉）文学士学位课程，三年制，全日制，选修国外
Linguistics, like all the sciences, involves the systematic study of the patterns and regularities found in data. In the case of Linguistics, the data involves speech and language, something all humans possess and something that is central to our identity and existence.<br>For the past 150 years or so, a large body of knowledge has been built up about what exactly language is, how language works, how languages are acquired and how they change. Our Linguistics BA will introduce you to this and to the tools and methods that will allow you to undertake your own investigations into English as well as other languages spoken around the world. <br>On this Linguistics BA degree, you will learn about, understand and interpret many aspects of human language. You will study the 'science behind language, including possible sounds used in speech and their combination (phonetics, phonology), how words are built up morphology), what distinguishes sentences from just strings of words (syntax), meaning (semantics and pragmatics), the effect that society, culture and norms have upon language use (sociolinguistics) and how languages change over time. <br>Linguistics as a subject has been taught at Bangor University since the 1960s, making our department one of the first linguistics departments in the UK. We are a vibrant, accessible, friendly department with staff committed to high-quality teaching, excellent student experience, strong pastoral support, and cutting-edge research. <br>Our academic staff provide expertise and dissertation supervision in wide range of disciplines within Linguistics and the English Language that include: psycholinguistics, child language acquisition, 2nd language acquisition, discourse analysis, TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language), SLA and language teaching, corpus linguistics, language and communication, phonetics & phonology, morphosyntax, semantics and pragmatics, historical linguistics, language variation and change, language and communication, bilingualism, language disorders, Welsh linguistics and language technologies / NLP. <br>Placement Year and International Experience Year Available<br><br>Careers<br>A degree in Linguistics provides subject knowledge and expertise.
