Comparative Languages and Linguistics<\/h1><\/div>\n\n\n\n

As a comparative languages and linguistics major, you\u2019ll select two of the languages that we teach and critically examine their structure, functions and corresponding cultures in both language-specific courses as well as linguistics courses that are taught in English. Your required off-campus study experience will ensure that your language study is grounded in a specific community and will help you develop lifelong personal and professional connections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
