Overview

Program Description The Department of Languages, Linguistics and Comparative Literature (LLCL) at Florida Atlantic University (FAU) provides a broad liberal arts background with a bachelor's degree in Languages, Linguistics and Comparative Literature with concentrations in French, Italian, Spanish, and Linguistics. Linguistics is the scientific study of language in all its manifestations. The various subfields of linguistics rely on close connections with other disciplines such as philosophy, psychology, sociology, anthropology, education, translation, and cognitive science. Linguists concern themselves with questions such as: How do languages differ? What do they have in common? How and why do languages change? How do children learn language? How does a person's language influence their thinking? How does language reflect society and culture? A degree in Linguistics can prepare students for careers in: Education & Academia Translation Speech Pathology Information Science - working in libraries and archives Industry: working in the publishing industry (writing, editing, publishing); working in advertising/branding; working on speech recognition and speech synthesis (with additional training) Law - working on legal texts and as a court reporter; analyzing linguistic evidence (with training in forensic linguistics); working as a lawyer (requires additional training; a degree in Linguistics can prepare you for admission into law programs) Government & NGOs - working for federal, state and local agencies; working for international organizations and NGOs
