The Graduate Institute of Linguistics was established in the August of 1994. The Institute started by offering a Master's program. Since August 2002, a doctoral program has also been offered. The Institute is dedicated to teaching and researching Chinese and Austronesian languages from a cognitive linguistic perspective.

For the past twenty years, linguistics has gradually been recognized as a branch of cognitive sciences, and is acknowledged as an integral part of a new discipline studying human mind, along with psychology, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, philosophy of mind, and cognitive anthropology, collectively investigating the origin and characteristics of human cognition. With this perspective in mind, the Institute actively promotes inter-disciplinary research and develops courses relevant to cognitive sciences.

The Institute owns several laboratories to carry out research projects in prosody, discourse analyses, psycholinguistics, and computational linguistics. In order to strengthen research on language and cognition, the Institute has also established several corpora, including the Chinese Spoken Corpus, the Formosan Corpus, the Child Language Corpus, the English Learner Corpus, and the Mandarin-Min Bilingual Corpus and the Social Network Corpus.
