Australian University Linguistics and Language Studies Programs

With the aim of building skills and expertise in an area with strong career possibilities, Canadian students undertaking undergraduate degrees in linguistics, languages, psychology or education often seek our postgraduate study options. Many Canadian graduates look to study in Australia for the specialized linguistics programs combined with the unique experience of studying internationally.

Linguistics is the scientific study of language. Linguistics comprises a range of fields from studying language structure, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, lexicon, sociolinguistics, and psycholinguistics. Studies in the fields of linguistics and language studies can be theoretical or practical. Normally, applied linguistics programs include practicum experiences for students to practise their skills in a supervised environment.

Students from Canada have a myriad of options from which to choose in postgraduate linguistics and language studies at Australian universities. International student tuition fees for Master's programs in the Health Sciences field generally range from $17,000 to $26,000 AUD per year.
