Are you fascinated by language?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learn how language is naturally organized. Investigate sound and word patterns, sentence structure, syntax and language usage. Discover how children acquire language without formal instruction. Dive into the relationship between language and the mind\u2013what happens in our brains when we speak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our program focuses on sociolinguistics, the study of how different social contexts affect our language, convey social meanings and reflect aspects of our identity. This program offers a social and cultural perspective on almost every aspect of the humanities and social sciences. Other core areas of linguistics have strong links to math, logic, teaching, speech-language pathology and the applied sciences of communication engineering and computer science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our program allows you to choose from courses that represent the widest selection of languages from any Canadian university. In our small classes, you\u2019ll build lasting academic relationships with your professors and peers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
