Prospective Student Information
I am pleased by your interest in the Department of Linguistics. This
section of our site will inform you about the application procedures,
degree requirements, and financial aid package for incoming graduate
students.
In addition to this section of the website, prospective students
should consult the Graduate Program
Description, Faculty, and Research sections
for information about graduate fields of study at Michigan and/or
faculty specializations. You will see that our graduate program
reflects a dynamic partnership between students and faculty. We
approach linguistics as a cognitive and social science, and thus have
strong ties to the departments of psychology and anthropology, as well
as several of the language departments. If you have further questions,
prospective students for the 2007-08 academic year are invited to
contact the Student Services Assistant, Sylvia Suttor, or the Graduate
Chair, Prof. Sam Epstein. Current
graduate students would also be pleased to provide information about
our program; prospective students who would like to hear from one or
more current students should contact Eric Brown, current chair of the Linguistics Graduate Student Organization.
Graduate student life is enriched by our Linguistics Graduate Student Organization,
regular departmental colloquia,
and research groups that
meet regularly (current schedule). We want your graduate experience to be an
exhilarating quest and we will do our best to make it so.
Sincerely,
Prof. Sam Epstein
Professor and Graduate Chair
