Programme description	As a Master’s degree student of linguistics at the University of Aarhus, you deal with many different aspects of language and how it is used. You study topics such as the way languages change as dynamic systems over periods of time, applied linguistics, linguistic typology, i.e. the unity and diversity of language, as well as interactional linguistics, in which you learn to analyse data using subject-specific methodologies and insights. We also emphasise that you shape your own individual Master’s degree profile to reflect your interests in linguistics and your career plans. You can do this through your choice of elective subjects by including other subject areas to shape your degree in the direction you want, and by means of a period of practical training, during which you gain insight into life in a workplace, try out your academic skills and get an impression of what the job market expects of a humanistic graduate.
