Course content
This flexible masters degree is suitable for anyone interested in the roles that language plays in society across a range of personal and professional contexts. You’ll begin with the core components of linguistic study, engaging with different approaches to language and looking at how its building blocks are used to create meaning. You’ll also try various methods of language analysis. You’ll then have the choice of two specialist routes. You can explore the English language, literacy, and learning and teaching in a range of professional contexts or look at the relationship between language use and changing global technologies. You’ll complete your masters with a small-scale study of a topic relevant to your professional practices or interests.
