Asian Languages and Linguistics

专业详情

The Asian Languages and Linguistics (AL&L) major encourages students to be exposed to multiple Asian languages and cultures to gain awareness of linguistic diversities in Asia as well as diversities in multi-racial and multi-ethnic communities in Los Angeles. The AL&L major focuses on two related fields of linguistics, the discourse-functional and socio-linguistics, and language pedagogy. The skills for linguistic and cultural analysis gained in this major will prepare students for an advanced degree in related fields, international relations and business tracks, and teaching languages locally and globally.
