Linguistics
Linguistics is the study of language. Linguists look at how people use language and try to find the rules that govern that use. Because linguistics touches so many areas of study, a minor in linguistics is useful for students majoring in foreign languages, English, sociology, anthropology, psychology, mathematics, communication, philosophy, or computer science. A minimum 2.0 g.p.a. is required for all courses in the minor.
When initiating the minor, students must register with the Linguistics advisor, Prof. John M. Jeep, GREAL, Irvin Hall 166, jeepjm@muohio.edu, and meet with an advisor at least once a year until they complete the minor.
This minor does not satisfy the Thematic Sequence requirement of the Miami Plan for English Majors.
