Study linguistics at Mason. We train students in cutting-edge approaches to language science. Students in our programs learn computational, documentary, experimental, and pedagogical techniques for investigating language.

Our faculty have expertise across many aspects of language, including acquisition, morphology, phonetics, pragmatics, semantics, and syntax, and our students graduate with a breadth of knowledge across these areas and deep expertise in their chosen specialization.

At all levels, our students learn to connect theory to practice. They have the opportunity to do research in one of our linguistics labs, and they graduate with skills in problem solving, logical thinking, and data analysis that can be applied to many fields and careers.

You can learn more about our program on our about page.
