The Linguistics minor is designed for students for whom training in linguistic analysis could be an enhancement to their major programs, and for students who are interested in language(s) but do not have time in their undergraduate programs to pursue multiquarter language sequences. In addition, the minor provides students with a way to design custom joint degrees with linguistics where the Linguistics Department does not have an existing joint degree program combining linguistics and another field.
