- Summary:
-
The undergraduate linguistics program at the University of California at Santa Cruz is described, the courses and course sequences are outlined, and the place of the major in the general curriculum is discussed. The program has been actively developed since 1980, when it was in danger of being discontinued, and now offers rigorous instruction in linguistic theory to a rapidly growing enrollment. The program goal is to teach undergraduates to engage in investigation and analysis of linguistic structures, based on the four principles of focus, professionalism, rigor, and fun. It offers 8 lower division and 27 upper division courses, and the major is built around three basic course sequences focusing on syntax, semantics, and phonology. Special program features include opportunities for students to assist in teaching courses, a research seminar, and publication of student papers. A closely interrelated graduate program has been initiated. The university as a whole has benefitted from the strengthening of the linguistics program, and the program has benefitted from a supportive administration and a high quality student body. (MSE)
