Funded MA Opportunity in Linguistics — University of Saskatchewan
The Department of Linguistics at the University of Saskatchewan is
seeking a Master’s student with strong linguistic training and a
compelling research proposal in one of the following areas:
•       Language reclamation and narrative structure of Algonquian
languages and Michif
•       Tense, Aspect, Syntax, and Semantics
•       All topics relating to Media Lengua, Kichwa, and Andean
Spanish
•       Language documentation and description of Dene languages
•       Immigrant and heritage languages of Canada; Bilingualism and
multilingualism; Russian
•       Applied linguistics; Technology-supported language learning,
teaching, and assessment
•       Language documentation & description of Northwest Amazonia;
Toponymy research in Southern Ecuador
Our MA in Linguistics is a two-year program that combines coursework,
research training, and thesis writing. We offer $27,000 in funding
during the first year, distributed on a monthly basis.
We are currently seeking domestic applicants — individuals with
Canadian citizenship, permanent residency, or a valid study permit
that can be extended.
Applications will be evaluated based on the quality of the research
proposal and academic performance (GPA).
Students benefit from close faculty mentorship in a small,
collaborative department, and the practical advantages of affordable
living in Saskatoon.
