This Ph.D. program in Linguistics trains researchers to contribute to the development of linguistic research through deepened theoretical knowledge and applied research methodology. The 90-credit program is organized into an 18-credit coursework component — a mandatory seminar in fundamental linguistics, a doctoral comprehensive examination, and three elective specialization seminars chosen from fields such as field linguistics methodology, experimental or quantitative linguistics, and descriptive linguistics — followed by a 72-credit research and thesis component that includes a doctoral research seminar, a thesis project, and the dissertation itself. Students may specialize in areas such as first- and second-language acquisition, sign and Indigenous language description, French grammar, morphology, phonetics, phonology, pragmatics, psycholinguistics, semantics, sociolinguistics, syntax, and cognitive science. Full-time study takes four years and part-time study six years, with courses offered during the day and admission in the Fall or Winter term.
