2 Online Masters Programs in Applied Linguistics 2023

Studying bilingualism and second-language acquirement through conversation and language acquisition analysis helps applied linguistics researchers develop theories about language learning. This information can then be used to shape language policy and more effectively teach students.

Like a traditional on-campus program, online master-level studies involve specialized study in a field of research or an area of professional practice. Earning a master’s degree online demonstrates a higher mastery of the subject. Online master's degrees generally allow flexible schedules for those trying to work, raise children, or travel while going to school. As with an on-campus master's degree, before you can graduate, you usually must write and defend a thesis, a long paper that is the culmination of your specialized research.
