Introduction

Linguistics is a Bachelor program taught at Boston College, USA. Intake: Fall, Spring. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time (4 years) options.

The Boston College Linguistics program focuses on analyzing linguistic phenomena and making generalizations about the nature of language, not only on acquiring language skills. Students majoring in Linguistics build their program around an emphasis selected in consultation with faculty. Typical areas of emphasis include philology, psycholinguistics, and language acquisition.

A typical major requires LING1201 General Linguistics, LING2432 Syntax and Semantics, LING2433 Phonetics and Phonology, and either LING3103 Language and Language Types or LING3104 Formalism and Functionalism in Linguistics. The plan also includes credits in the linguistic structure of a specific language or language family, additional credits from departmental offerings, and LING4391 AB Comprehensive: Linguistics.

The program is designed for students who major in Linguistics. It also offers a departmental minor that requires six approved one-semester courses and includes a set of required options.
