About Master of Arts - Linguistics - Native Languages of the Southwest

The University of New Mexico, linguistics is more than just the study of the structure of language. University seek to investigate language as an ever-changing, ever-emerging system of communication. Although different members of the department explore language from a variety of different angles, they all view it broadly as the product of time and experience. Studying language helps students understand their own cognition and what it means to be human.

As soon as a student is admitted to the M.A. program, they should start thinking about whether writing a thesis (Plan I) or completing additional coursework (Plan II) would be most suited to their interests and long-range career goals. There are benefits to both approaches. The intensive research and writing involved in preparing a thesis can be valuable preparation for further studies at the Ph.D. level or for employment in a specific area related to linguistics. On the other hand, the M.A. program may be seen as the opportunity to pursue broad experience in linguistics. The coursework option ensures a strong foundation in linguistics with an appropriate depth and breadth of knowledge to pursue further studies or professional employment.
