COURSE DATES:  5 March 2025 - 18 July 2025

Our 'Field Linguistics' course gives you the opportunity to analyse real languages with the help of our course instructors. The first project is the linguistic analysis of a language spoken in the Highlands of Papua New Guinea. The second project will include working with a speaker of a language foreign to you, which will give you the opportunity to gather your own language data, complete a linguistic analysis of that data, and then present your conclusions in a formal write-up.
