active MA and PhD program. The department has long been a leading centre for
the linguistic study of Indigenous languages of Canada, with particular
attention to the Algonquian language family. Applicants with an interest in
Indigenous languages would be particularly welcome. More information can be
found at http://umanitoba.ca/faculties/arts/departments/linguistics/.
