The Linguistics Program at Tulane offers an accelerated Master of Arts program in Linguistics to enrolled seniors. Students choosing this fast-track option must take 6 graduate credits (2 courses) while still completing undergraduate course work. These 6 graduate credits are in addition to the 30 credits required for the Bachelor’s degree in Linguistics. They will count toward the 30 graduate credits (10 courses) required for the MA in Linguistics, although they may also be used to fulfill one or two of the four area requirements for the undergraduate Linguistics major (Phonology, Morpho-syntax, Language History, Language and Thought). Having earned these 6 graduate credits while completing the undergraduate major, student in the 4+1 MA program will take just 24 graduate credits (8 courses) during their fifth year. This program allows students to bypass the time commitment and anxiety of the graduate admissions process and places them within a year of obtaining their Master’s degree upon graduating with their Bachelor’s degree.
