Linguistics Minor

The minor in linguistics broadens the academic back­ground of students majoring in related fields such as cognitive science, communication sciences and disorders, psychology, philosophy, foreign languages, mathematics, and computer science by offering training in the theory and methods of linguistic analysis.

Double-counting note: Weinberg College prohibits double-counting a minor course toward some other major or minor, except where this is explicitly permitted in this catalog. Weinberg College does allow double-counting a minor course toward a general bachelor's degree requirement (i.e. degree requirements other than majors or minors). Other programs or schools may have their own restrictions that supersede this, so check the relevant parts of this catalog for possible limits.
