Course overview
The Master of Applied Linguistics at CDU is a postgraduate degree that prepares you for analysis, evaluation, and application of linguistic understandings to language, its use, and its role in various contexts. You will build theoretical foundations in applied linguistics for developing knowledge and awareness in the field that targets developments in practice and research. The focus of the program is on contextualized evaluation of language, which can be applied to theoretical analysis or contribute to the continuing professional development of linguists, language teachers, TESOL practitioners, and education policy makers. You will explore content incorporating aspects that can be applied to local, regional and global contexts, and offer directed engagement with First Nations, Australian, Asian and global content and perspectives. Study opportunities exist on-campus or online, in full-time or part-time study modes. You may personalize your course by completing a capstone research project in an area of interest that is complemented by additional coursework electives. Areas of focus across the course include Indigenous languages, linguistic analysis and documentation, language teaching and testing, and sociolinguistics. All areas are represented in coursework components, and in pursuing a capstone research project, you will have access to an expert research supervisor, who will guide you in the research journey
