Program Description:	The Linguistics Program at Wayne State University is a general linguistics program with participating faculty in several departments, providing the student with a strong foundation in all the major branches of linguistics, including phonetics, phonology, syntax, semantics, anthropological linguistics, psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, historical linguistics, and discourse analysis. The M.A. degree is the highest degree offered. WSU is the home of The LINGUIST List, and, because of the EMELD grant, it has a growing emphasis on fieldwork and endangered languages. Another emphasis is the intersection of theoretical linguistics, psycholinguistics, and neurolinguistics. Historical linguistics is a third area of strength.
Available Financial Aid:	Teaching assistantships in Near Eastern languages (Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, Hebrew) Editorships with the LINGUIST List
