The flexible MSc Language Sciences course is aimed at graduates and professionals working in language-related careers seeking in-depth specialized knowledge in the neuroscience of language, language development or multilingualism​.

The MSc in Language Sciences is ideal for preparing graduates in linguistics, speech and language therapy, psychology, education and allied disciplines for research-related careers in the language sciences. The master's is also appropriate if applicants are a professional already working in speech and language therapy and would like to update their knowledge of the language sciences.

Leading experts will instruct students on the core areas within the field of language sciences. Building on this core knowledge in linguistics and psycholinguistics, students will have the opportunity to gain in-depth specialized knowledge in one of three dedicated pathways: neuroscience of language, language development, or multilingualism. • Neuroscience of language: this pathway will introduce students to current advances in neuroscience research, including functional MRI and electrophysiology of language. • Language development: this pathway will focus on language development and disorders, including disorders of fluency and childhood bilingualism. • Multilingualism: this pathway provides a flexible multidisciplinary course focusing on linguistic, cognitive and pedagogical aspects of multilingualism, as well as research training in this area.
