Summary
The Applied Linguistics pathway is a specialism on the Cross-Cultural Communication MA. It allows you to study applied linguistics and intercultural communication. It provides knowledge and expertise in the new approaches and techniques for teaching English as a second or foreign language.
Applied linguistics and communication staff within the School of Education, Communication and Language Sciences deliver this specialist pathway. It offers a wide range of optional modules in the areas of applied linguistics and Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL).
Our applied linguistics academic staff have teaching and research expertise in:

If you're interested in a career in language teaching, but have little or no previous teaching experience, you can take introductory modules in TESOL. You'll gain practical skills and knowledge needed for language teaching and learning.
