Annotation

The MA in Multilingualism is an innovative Master's programme that incorporates cutting-edge research in linguistics and multilingualism. The programme is taught in English and suits students who have a background in linguistics, education, psychology, cognitive science, speech and language therapy, or related fields, as well as students who have a strong interest in how language develops across different types of bilingual and multilingual groups. Students who choose the double degree option spent the first two semesters in Bordeaux where the language of instruction is French. Students who do not choose the double degree option spend one semester in the second year abroad at a university of their choice or do an internship at an organisation in Germany or abroad. Within this two-year programme, students develop their knowledge and skills of linguistics\; gain training in research design, research methods, and statistics\; and receive solid training in a range of areas of multilingualism, including psycholinguistic, neurolinguistics, and sociolinguistic perspectives. The Department of Linguistics at the University of Konstanz has state-of-the art facilities that include, e.g., reaction time, eye-tracking, ERP, and baby-lab facilities that can be used by the students.
