This master's program, Master Sciences Du Langage — Sciences du langage, is delivered by Nantes Université in Nantes and belongs to the discipline of linguistics, the scientific study of language, including its structure, use, acquisition, and variation. Linguistics programs typically cover core areas such as phonetics and phonology, the study of speech sounds; morphology and syntax, the study of word and sentence structure; semantics, the study of meaning; and pragmatics, the study of language use in context. Students generally also study sociolinguistics, examining how language varies across social groups and situations, as well as psycholinguistics, which looks at how language is processed and acquired by the human mind. Depending on the program's orientation, coursework may extend into computational linguistics, language acquisition, or the application of linguistic methods to fields such as language teaching, translation, or speech and language therapy. Research methods, including corpus analysis and empirical data collection, are typically a significant part of training in this discipline, preparing students to conduct original linguistic research. Career paths connected to linguistics include roles in language teaching, research, natural language processing and computational linguistics, translation and localization, speech-language pathology support, and further doctoral study in linguistics or related fields. The program awards a master's degree, is completed over 2 years, and instruction is in French. Classes are scheduled to begin in September, and the yearly tuition is 250 EUR, suiting students with a strong interest in how language works and is studied scientifically.
