The FAU graduate Linguistics program prepares students for a broad range of opportunities in language education and research. Our alumni have found employment in public and private schools, colleges, and institutes, here in South Florida and overseas. Our graduates hold positions directing ESL, EAP, and Remedial English programs; they teach English or foreign languages both in the US and abroad; and some have continued their education in doctoral programs in related fields. How do we prepare graduates for such a broad range of contexts? Our MA program combines theoretical and applied linguistics, providing students with a well-balanced grounding of theory and practice. Thus, our students graduate with a broad range of expertise that allows them to successfully compete in today's global job market. They are well-suited to not only apply pedagogical techniques but also interpret the research literature and integrate it into their particular instructional situation. Students have the choice of an MA degree with thesis and a non-thesis option. Our Department offers financial support for MA students, either as supervised Teaching Assistants teaching one of the foreign languages offered in the Department (Chinese, French, German, Italian, Spanish) or by assisting professors in teaching undergraduate courses in linguistics .
