The Senior Experience in the Linguistics Program consists of an Independent Study that may be carried out over one, two, or three terms. Students choose an area of interest and work with a faculty member who does work in that field, or closely related to that field. The Independent Study culminates in a research paper and an oral presentation to faculty and students in the Linguistics Program. Possible venues for presentation include the annual Linguistics Björklunden weekend, the Linguistics Tea, or the Richard A. Harrison Symposium.
Students pursuing double majors are encouraged to find a topic that combines their interests in both fields.
