Linguistics

Students writing on a chalkboard

Welcome to the study of linguistics, a discipline that encompasses theories of language structure in all domains: speech sounds (phonetics and phonology), words (morphology), sentences (syntax), meaning (semantics) and conversations (discourse), while psycholinguistics emphasizes biological and psychological factors in language and disorders.

UTSC’s Psycholinguistics is the only program in Ontario preparing students specifically for professional programs such as Speech Language Pathology!
