6 courses with the subject LING, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
LING 250Introduction to Linguistics (0-3 SH)
This course is dedicated to the study of the essential nature of languages with English as the primary, but not only, example. Students learn to use some of the tools of linguistic analysis to learn about phonetics, phonology, morphology, and syntax, and examine broader concepts of language typology, discourse, language variation, and the history of English.
LING 360Language Learning, Literacy, and Culture (3 SH)
This course considers how humans acquire their first language and other languages. How do power, personal identity, social inequalities and other socio-cultural factors influence acquisition of language and literacy skills? Of special interest are the challenges facing learners outside the mainstream culture who acquire skills in English as an academic language. Practical implications for teaching are considered. Prerequisite: Sophomore standing or permission of the instructor. (Spring 2024)
The professional Internship Program is a cooperative endeavor among upper-level students, the community, and the language and literature department. An internship provides an opportunity for students to explore career options and to extend their classroom experiences and learning with both job-related and academic responsibilities. Department approval required one semester in advance. This course is graded on a P/F basis.
