Languages & Linguistics Degree Programs

It’s not possible to name just one specific location as the best place where to earn your linguistics degree abroad. Where will be the most rewarding destination depends just as much on your own personal ambitions and interests as it does on the quality of educational programs available in that country.

For example some of the very best linguistics programs in the world are located in English speaking countries such as England, Australia, and the United States. It’s true that you can earn a very prestigious degree from a university in one of these countries, but at the same time if you are a native English speaker then you will be entering into a linguistic and cultural environment which is very similar to your own.

On the flipside if you choose to earn your linguistics degree abroad somewhere with a drastically different language and culture, this will present a whole new set of challenges and insights that you might not otherwise gain by sticking to the familiar. Countries such as China, India, and Russia are all examples of places where deeply rooted cultural differences will challenge you to study the field of linguistics under a whole new light.
