About this degree
The Language Sciences MSc programme provides an opportunity for in-depth study in one or more areas of language science. It is an umbrella degree with five separate specialised strands. Each strand follows a common structure, enabling students to tailor the degree to their own interests.
All students take a core set of modules, forming a basis from which to study and undertake research in diverse areas of language science. You will then tailor the degree to your own interests through choosing specialised modules to develop and build upon your existing research interests, enabling you to take full advantage of the breadth of expertise in Language Sciences in the Division of Psychology and Language Sciences.
Who this course is for
The Language Sciences MSc offers a variety of aspects related to speech and language in its five routes relating to neuroscience, development, technology, principles/fundamentals of language and speech and sign language and deaf studies. Students will become specialists in their chosen route and complement their knowledge according to their tastes with further modules in speech, language or psychology. The modules aim at students with a background in linguistics and psychology. Modules are designed with an assumption of prior knowledge in these areas.
Many of our alumni work in interdisciplinary teams where they contribute as specialists in speech and language or are valued for their expertise in rigorous scientific working. The latter motivated and enabled some of our former students to pursue careers in entirely different fields.
The programme puts a large emphasis on the research project, which prepares students to pursue a PhD after completion. Many courses contain components with hands-on experience, such as lab or coding sessions, in which students obtain skills that are valued by industry and academia alike.
