The concentration in the English Language and Linguistics degrees can be generally described as English in multilingual settings. Peoples, languages and situations have always interacted but globalisation has made the study of such interactions of particular and pressing importance. Singapore is ideally positioned for that study. It is a natural language laboratory in which students and researchers can observe the causes, effects and functions of languages interacting with the social and cultural in complex and interesting ways. The Department numbers experts of various kinds among its faculty who bring different perspectives to bear on the phenomenon of language in social life. All our graduate students should expect to acquire a developed expertise in this area of language studies.
