Annotation

Minor subject in the combination Bachelor's degree course - only possible in combination with a major subject Standard period of study: 6 or 8 semesters (depending on combination) The degree depends on the major subject chosen. Further information on the structure of the combination Bachelor's degree course can be found here:https://www.uni-marburg.de/de/studium/studieninteressierte/studienmoeglichkeiten/kombibachelor The focus of the degree course is on teaching the fundamentals of linguistics concerning speech sounds and sound systems or rhetoric and oral communication, for example. You will also learn scientific methods of linguistics. You can deepen your knowledge in one of four areas: speech science and conversational research, text linguistics and pragmatics, history of language and language variation or psycholinguistics and neurolinguistics. In combination with degree courses in philology, social sciences and mathematics subjects, the minor subject can make the fundamentals of linguistics usable for other sciences. In combination with philologies, linguistics can teach methods of language comparison and the generalisability of linguistic characteristics. The areas of dialogue, text linguistics and pragmatics are a sensible addition to subjects in education science, sociology or politics. Formalisations of the linguistic description also provide interfaces to mathematics and computer science. Methods of experimental research in linguistics can be sensible additions to courses of study in psychology or neuroscientific subjects. An integral part of the degree course is the MarSkills programme, in which you acquire attractive and future-oriented key skills (see https://www.uni-marburg.de/de/fb09/igs/arbeitsgruppen/sprechwissenschaft/marskills/was-ist-marskills
