Get Involved in Linguistics
How to Get Involved
There are lots of great opportunities to get involved while you're a student in linguistics.
Department events, such as the Research and Community events, are a great way to get to know faculty and other students and expand your understanding of linguistics. Projects you undertake that relate to linguistics might also be eligible for credit as an internship (LING XXXX). This includes volunteering in businesses that are related to linguistics and placements in companies that are actively involved in linguistic work or research. Please talk with your advisor for more details. You can filter Undergraduate and graduate Opportunities below.
