 | | Linguistics is called a 'foundation' science because it bridges the social sciences and humanities and because it both inspires and interacts with a number of other fields, including Anthropology, Cognitive Science, Computer Science, Education, English, Geography, History, Law, languages, Literature, Neurology, Philosophy, Psychology, Sociology, and Speech and Language Therapy. |
 | | The Linguistics Programme has research programmes in the origins and evolution of New Zealand English, morphology and word formation, syntax, semantics, the syntax– semantics interface, oral formulaic speech, and the origins and evolution of language. |
 | | A Linguistics degree is an ideal preparation for training in teaching English as a second language, which is a popular career and offers excellent travel opportunities. |
