Students will have acquired at the end of the course complementary skills in the main theoretical branches of linguistics (syntax, lexicology, semantics and pragmatics), the methodological tools to understand the complex nature of linguistics (linguistic statistics, qualitative and quantitative corpus analysis) and an opening towards related disciplines which allows the functioning of language to be put into context. Special attention is given to those subjects where UCL has a cutting edge in linguistics research : discourse analysis, corpus linguistics, sociolinguistics, prosody, contrastive linguistics, linguistic engineering.
The Masters in Linguistics provides many career opportunities. Research leading to a doctorate is an obvious one but the business world and public services also offer various career possibilities. Careers in communications, telecommunications, editing, dictionary compilation, information and communication technologies, where they would hold positions as language specialists. Masters in Linguistics may also teach at non-university third level institutions.
All students take advantage of a general training which combines theoretical and methodological courses which allows access to different specialities via the different focuses and options.
Three focuses are available:
- the 'Research Focus' aims to give students an introduction to scientific research and build on the student's linguistic knowledge in at least one modern language as well as helping them develop specific knowledge of one or several fields of applied linguistics (learning foreign languages, psycholinguistics, computational linguistics, contrastive linguistics, etc.).Students will be given a substantial introduction to scientific communication (oral presentation techniques using powerpoint, posters, abstracts, writing scientific articles, etc.) and will discover how research is carried out by participating in conferences or spending time in a research centre (in Belgium or abroad). Such skills could also be used in a non-scientific context.
- the 'Professional Focus in Natural Language Processing' aims to introduce students to the essential methods, technology and concepts related to natural language processing (processing intelligent texts, person-machine interfaces, automatic translation, documentary navigation, teaching materials, electronic dictionaries, etc.).
This is an interdisciplinary training which allows students to study indepth the principal difficulties in analyzing language while at the same time acquiring advanced skills in mastering computer tools and concepts. The objective is to train specialists (competent both in computers and linguistics) and to allow access to jobs in “language industries” or more generally in information and communication technologies (ICT). Regular seminars provide students with the opportunity to make contacts with the business world. A placement in a company or research centre forms part of the students’ thesis providing them with the opportunity to develop some of their training in an industrial setting.
This progressive programme is accessible to students without prior computer knowledge (students who have already followed computer studies may follow a modified programme). This programme, unique in the French-speaking community in Belgium; is organized jointly with KULeuven, the Facultés polytechniques de Mons-Haineau (FPMS) and the Facultés universitaires Notre-Dame de la Paix (Namur).
- the 'Professional Focus in Applied Linguistics for Language Learning' aims to give students an introduction to the tools, methodology and concepts vital to language learning (linguistic policy, learning psychology, language-specific methodology). Based on the students’ profile, they will study certain aspect specific to the learning of French, Dutch, German or English. UCL is the only university in the French-speaking.
All relevant information concerning studies and research in linguistics at UCL may be found on the following site:
http://www.uclouvain.be/ling
Changing from one focus to another is possible under certain conditions. The request is submitted for approval by the Faculty’s academic secretary.
Wathever the focus or the options chosen, the programme of this master shall totalise 120 credits, spread over two years of studies each of 60 credits
One focus from the following :
Options or optional courses
2° Provide proof of a sufficient level in French (B1 of the European Framework of Reference )
3° Student must have followed training including at least 30 credits in linguistics and/or 'sciences du langage', including the following 2 courses (or their equivalent) : FLTR1530 'Introduction aux sciences du langage' (4 credits) and FLTR1560 'Linguistique générale' (3 credits).
4° Student must demonstrate :
⇒ sufficient skills in the French language, of both a written and oral nature;
⇒ the capacity to develop an argument on the language heard as a general sign and not just a linguistic sign;
⇒ an understanding of the way language works internally (basic units and structures, contemporary theories) and externally (relationship with other disciplines).
If student does not have sufficient training in one or several of these subjects, prerequisites will be added to the masters programme (maximum 15 credits).
The 30 credits of the Minor in Linguistics [30.0] satisfy these requriements.
If the total number of prerequisites exceeds 15 credits, access to the master is subject to the student passing an Preparotory year for Master in Linguistics [60.0], the programme of which is established based on the student's file.
Course equivalences are submitted for approval to the chairman of the jury, the secretary of the jury and the academic faculty secretary.
