Description:

The Department of Linguistics welcomes applications to the Ph.D. Program 
from qualified students. Please complete the GraduateSchool application for 
the academic year 2006-2007 and submit all required materials 
as soon as possible. The deadline for applications for Fall Semester 2006 is 9 
December 2005.

The Ph.D. in Linguistics is an academic degree designed primarily to provide 
students with the intellectual background and research skills of a scholar. It 
emphasizes disciplinary training and research methodology and culminates in 
a dissertation--an extended work of original scholarship that contributes 
substantially to the knowledge base in the field. Candidates for the Ph.D. in 
Linguistics normally complete 60 hours of coursework beyond the B.A. 
(including at least 14 dissertation credits) and pass a qualifying exam in 
accordance with departmental regulations. Students specialize in one of four 
tracks: General/Theoretical Linguistics; Second Language (L2) Theory; L2 
Teacher Education, or L2 Program Development and Administration.

The University of Utah also offers an MA in Linguistics and graduate 
certificate programs.

Support opportunities include ESL TAships, Linguistics TAships, research 
assistantships, and a limited number of scholarships. Other financial 
assistance opportunities exist at the College and the University levels. Please 
check our website www.linguistics.utah.edu for further information. ESL TAs 
must either be native speakers of English or have native-like proficiency in 
English. Please check the website for information regarding scholarships and 
teaching assistantships. You may request application materials for these 
positions directly from the Department of Linguistics (801) 581-8047.

Eligibility: Holders of the B.A., M.A., M.S., or M.Ed from an accredited college 
or university who have a cumulative grade-point average of 3.0 ('B') or above 
are eligible for admission to the Ph.D. program; Students applying to the 
Ph.D. program are encouraged to complete a masters degree prior 
to making an application. All students admitted to the Ph.D. program directly 
from the B.A. are required to take course work at the M.A. level or 
demonstrate skills equivalent to M.A. level students before taking Ph.D. level 
courses and seminars.
