Information for Prospective Students The Department of Linguistics at the University of Washington offers programs of study for graduate students leading to the degree of PhD in Linguistics. The program is administered by the faculty of the Department of Linguistics. Students not interested in a degree can earn limited graduate credit in linguistics by applying for nonmatriculated or graduate nonmatriculated status. Graduate nonmatriculated admission is handled by the Educational Outreach office. A downloadable/printable version of the graduate nonmatriculated application in PDF format is also available on-line. If the student later chooses to become a matriculated student, he or she may petition to have twelve graduate nonmatriculated credits (3-4 courses) applied to a graduate degree. The major interests of the core faculty of the Linguistics Department lie in syntax, phonology, morphology, semantics, phonetics, sociolinguistics, computational linguistics, and in theoretical aspects of second language acquisition. Graduate students working in these areas will therefore be best served and feel most at home in the department. Please note that the department does not have a program in language pedagogy or applied linguistics. The MA-TESL degree is administered through the Department of English.
