-
- explains what you might do with a degree in linguistics and the kinds of jobs and careers that studying linguistics prepares you for;
-
- is supported by a list of links to additional resources available online.
This book is the first of its kind and will be essential reading for anyone considering a course of study in this fascinating subject, as well as teachers, advisors, student mentors, and anyone who wants to know more about the scientific study of language.
