Bachelor of Languages and Linguistics
Griffith University - Gold Coast
Overview
The ability to communicate in other languages and cultural contexts is valuable in any career. When you study a language at Griffith, you won’t just learn to speak and write the words, you’ll also study linguistics – the science, nature and function of language and how it is used in society.
Understanding how languages are developed and used will help you gain a solid understanding of your chosen language. You’ll apply your knowledge of linguistics and your chosen language in real world challenges including second language learning and teaching, intercultural communication, and translating and interpreting. You’ll learn in small classes, where you’ll receive individual attention. Whether you’re a total beginner or quite fluent, you’ll find courses to suit you. You’ll also be exposed to the cultural context of your chosen language.
