Research in linguistics at Carolina runs the gamut from field work with speakers of indigenous languages, to the study of ancient writing systems, to experimental studies on children’s language, to the development of computational models of language learning. Graduate students are expected to conduct their own original research, and there are many opportunities for undergraduates to get involved in faculty-led research projects.
The best way to get involved is to join a lab/research group, or to enroll in one of our Research-Exposure, Research-Methods, or Research-Intensive courses, which incorporate research directly into the curriculum:
| Research-Exposure | Research-Methods | Research-Intensive |
|---|---|---|
| LING 202 | LING 422 | LING 395 |
| LING 333 | LING 460 | LING 495 |
| LING 428 | LING 573 | LING 520 |
| LING 444 | LING 574 | LING 691H |
