The University of Stirling is pleased to announce a new Master's degree
programme in English Language and Linguistics, beginning in September 2011.
The programme is centred around advanced study of the English language,
covering both theoretical approaches to linguistics and their application
in a broader cultural context. Students will study how language works, with
a particular focus on the structure and varieties of English, both
contemporary and historical. The flexible programme contains options on a
diverse range of topics, including Language and Cognition, Old and Middle
English, Discourse Analysis, Evolutionary Linguistics, Historical
Linguistics and the History of English, Sociolinguistics and Varieties of
English, Corpus Linguistics and Language Learning: Theory and Research.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact
your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company
operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
