Overview

The interdisciplinary approach of the Linguistics Program at Emory University allows you to explore a wide range of languages—even computer languages—to understand how language is acquired; how it evolves; and the impact of physiological, cognitive, societal, and cultural differences on communication.

Outcomes

Because language and communication is critical to every endeavor, the study of linguistics provides a foundation that is helpful for any career path. You’ll find linguists working in every sector, from academic and governmental to corporate and nonprofit. And they frequently go into specialized areas such as finance, healthcare, science, and law.

Recent graduates work at TransPerfect Translations, Greenberg Taurig, Myrick Marketing, Lutheran Services of Georgia, PwC China, Impact America, and Hillel International.

They have also gone on to pursue advanced degrees at such prestigious institutions as the University of California –Santa Barbara, Massachusetts General Hospital Institute of Health Professions, University of St. Andrews, University of Pennsylvania, and the University of Georgia.
