理学学士（荣誉学位）-语言和语言学

语言和语言学课程旨在为学生提供语言理论及其应用领域的基础知识。这些领域包括语音，形态，语法，语义，语用，历史语言学，语言习得和话语分析。主要的教学方法包括讲座和研讨会的混合使用，两者都以使用语言数据为例。此外，语言学课程的中心要素是独立收集和分析数据的经验，我们的目标是从学位的第一学期开始在学生中发展这项技能。自主学习和阅读也是必不可少的，并且在该学位的三年中发展了独立学习所需的学习技巧。评估是通过数据分析练习，基于论文的作业，以数据为中心的研究项目和正式考试的混合进行的。教学团队由在欧洲和美国的主要大学
The Language and Linguistics course aims to give students foundational knowledge of the areas of linguistic theory and its applications. These areas include phonetics, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, historical linguistics, language acquisitionand discourse analysis. Primary teaching methods involve a mix of lectures and seminars both of which are heavily centred around working with examples of language data. In addition, a central element of a linguistics programme is the experience of independently collecting and analysing data and we aim to develop this skill in our students from the very first semester of the degree. Independent study and reading is also essential and the necessary study skills for independent study are developed over the three years of the degree. Assessment is by a mixture of data analysis exercises, essay based assignments, data centred research projects and formal examinations. The teaching team is made up of international, research-active linguists, educated in major Universities of Europe and the US.<br><br>We have designed our course to give you the flexibility to undertake a pathway which best suits your needs, so Language & Linguistics can be studied in conjunction with Counselling Studies. This allows you to combine your interest in language with the study of a vocational area in which effective use of language is central.
