The Linguistics Department at the University of Colorado Boulder would
like to introduce our department, and its diverse community of
learners, to excellent potential graduate applicants from all
backgrounds and experiences. To that end, we are offering a virtual
preview event consisting of 3 sessions between 23-25 October to
provide information and support for these applicants. You are invited
to join us!
CU’s Linguistics Department is a major center of interdisciplinary
research in sociocultural and interactional linguistics, computational
linguistics, cognitive-functional linguistics, language documentation,
and psycholinguistics and experimental linguistics. The Department's
orientation is empirical: we use analysis of conversational data,
acoustic measurements of speech, computational modeling and
statistical analysis, psycholinguistic experimentation, and fieldwork
in local communities and abroad to gain insights about structural
properties of language, test theories about language, and explain
patterns of language use.
The Department strives to provide a supportive environment for
research and learning by fostering diversity and inclusion across the
areas of curriculum, student body demographics, and faculty
demographics. We recognize that students and faculty from backgrounds
not historically well represented in graduate programs enrich our
field and enhance the educational experience of all students. We
encourage students to use the tools of our field to address critical
problems in our world.
At the CU Boulder Peak Potential event, participants will have the
opportunity to hear from faculty about the different academic programs
in Linguistics at CU, the admissions process, research in the
department and opportunities for student involvement. Students can
also talk with current graduate students about the Linguistics
program, the university, and the community of Boulder.
