The term ‘Bimodal Bilingualism’ is a recent coinage in the field of Sign Linguistics to refer to concepts surrounding knowledge and use of spoken and sign languages bilingually by individuals in society. It reflects the burgeoning of research interest in the function of sign language in human cognition and communication in recent years, such as bilingual advantage, bimodal bilingual child development, code-mixing and code blending, concepts that echo and complement the ever-expanding research agendas of spoken language linguistics.
The first of its kind in Hong Kong and Asia, this interdisciplinary programme offers foundational training in General Linguistics and Sign Linguistics, having the goal of eventually creating a workforce in society that is competent in spoken and sign languages for professional support in education in different settings, information accessibility in social and professional contexts, social welfare of disadvantaged groups, and many other domains that call for such a unique combination of linguistic skills.
