Linguistics is the science-based study of human language. Its students seek to understand the context, structure, and meaning of languages by comparing existing human languages and studying their similarities and differences. Areas of study include phonology, semantics, and syntax.

There are a few potential benefits to looking into a graduate pathway for students who know they want more than a simple bachelor’s degree. One example is that this choice may help the student specialize and prepare for advanced courses.

Part time learning allows one to obtain part-time degrees even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at his or own pace, gradually accumulating credits which count towards final qualification.
