The faculty is highly qualified, experienced and tech-savvy. Most of them are
Ph.Ds. from abroad.
The department focusses on the scientific study of the language in all aspects.
The main goal of English linguistics, like all other intellectual disciplines,
is to increase our knowledge and understanding of the world. It has a strong
emphasis on linguistics theories as well as on field work and experimental
studies.
Since language is universal and fundamental to all human interactions, the
knowledge attained in linguistics has many practical applications. The major
sub-fields of Linguistics include:
Phonetics: the study of speech sounds
Phonology: the study of language sound system
Morphology: the study of word structure
Syntax: the study of how linguistic units larger than the word are constructed
Semantics: the study of meaning
Historical linguistics: the study of language change over time
Sociolinguistics: the study of how language is used in society
Psycholinguistics: the study of how language is processed in mind
Neurolinguistics: the study of the actual encoding of language in the brain
Computational linguistics: learning and understanding a language involves
computing the properties of that language that are described in its phonology,
syntax and semantics.
