Language & Linguistics and Sociology | Master's degree | Humanities & Culture | On Campus | 4 years | University of Aberdeen | United Kingdom
Language and Linguistics looks at human language evolution and Sociology looks at how societies have developed, both look at challenges now and in the future. Language & Linguistics will introduce you to, among other things, how human language and speech may have evolved, the complex functions and structures of language in its role as a bridge between sound and meaning, the ways in which we acquire languages as children and adults, the ways in which languages vary and the mechanisms by which they change over time.
