"The MA program in
Linguistics is a great program for students interested in linguistics
and a variety of language-related fields, such as psychology, language
disorders, and computer science. The interdisciplinary nature of the
program was a perfect fit for me, being interested in both theoretical
linguistics and language disorders, and it allowed me to tailor my
Masters degree to focus on my exact research interests. And because the
program is small, I felt supported in every way by the faculty, staff,
and peers in the department. The faculty members are friendly,
knowledgeable, and approachable and made each of my classes interesting
and challenging, and because of this, I feel entirely prepared to begin
my doctoral studies. On top of all that, the MA program is exceptionally
well-funded. I definitely recommend this program for anyone looking for
a personalized, challenging, and interdisciplinary graduate
experience!"

"The M.A. program
in Linguistics at UWO offers a unique opportunity to study linguistics
from an interdisciplinary perspective and work with faculty across
disciplines. The professors are approachable and eager to share their
expertise, and provide the resources and support for success while
challenging you along the way. The small size of the program ensures
that the students and professors get to know each other very well and
work together. My graduate experience in the M.A. program in Linguistics
provided me with the necessary research skills and theoretical
foundation to continue language research at the Ph.D. level."

"The
Master's in Linguistics program at the University of Western Ontario was
the perfect fit for me. The two year Master's program is giving me the
time, not only to develop my own research ideas, but also allowing me to
specialize my skills and knowledge in linguistics. The small class
sizes have allowed me to get to know each and every one of my professors
and to expand my academice network incredibly. The professors and staff
within the program are understanding, friendly and communicative and
work to the highest level to be accommodating and to push me towards
personal success. My experiences within this program have been great and
I feel that it has more than prepared me to continue my research onto
the PhD level. I highly recommend the Master's in Linguistics program to
all students interested in a higher level of understanding within the
field of linguistics."

"Why should you
study linguistics at Western? Because the program is small and
supportive and you will receive all the attention you require, because
the faculty comes from many diverse academic backgrounds, because you
will have access to all the facilities in the TALL lab, because you will
be well funded, and most of all because you will have the exciting
opportunity to conduct your own independent linguistic research at a
world-class university. My experiences in the graduate Linguistics
program here at Western have been nothing short of phenomenal - the
courses are all well crafted and interesting, the professors are
incredibly knowledgeable, approachable and helpful, and I am delighted
to have the opportunity to conduct my research in such a wonderful
academic environment!"
