Linguistic school?

<p>I read a lot of information from many college websites and I have a few questions.</p>

<ol>
<li>It said "required courses" I really want to know this. Required courses are all subjects you must study in Master/Ph.D Degree or the subjects that you must study before when you are an undergraduate student?</li>
<li>Is there any linguistic colleges that have the introductory courses for graduate student especially Master degree? If those required courses aren't subjects tought for graduate student.</li>
<li>I heard a lot about this faculty that if you're interested in linguistics, Graduate program is better. Many people don't suggest an undergraduate program. Why?
4.Is there any colleges that have only graduate program?</li>
</ol>

<p>Actually I plan to major in Arts of English at my country but the program offers not enough linguistic courses(though it's minor program).</p>

<p>Thank you so much</p>

<p>Your post is not entirely clear. I assume that English is not your native language. However, I will try to answeryour questions as best I understand them.</p>

<ol>
<li>Required courses
It depends whether you were reading the section of a website that refers to an undergraduate degree or a graduate degree. Both undergraduate and graduate degree programs will have required courses. In addition, descriptions of graduate degree programs might specify certain undergraduate courses that are required for admission.</li>
<li>Your question is not clear. Graduate students often take advanced undergraduate courses (though an instructor might require additional assignments for graduate students), especially if the graduate student entered a field without a prior undergraduate major in that field. Sometimes, there are “introductory” courses for the first=year graduate students in a field (e.g., proseminars that survey broad areas of research and theory in a subfield of a discipline).</li>
<li>Linguistics is an interdisciplinary field. At the graduate level, students enter this field from a number of different undergraduate majors (e.g., foreign languages, philosophy, anthropology, psychology, etc.). Sometimes, I have seen recommendations that undergraduate students major in a field other than linguistics and only enter linguistics as graduate students.</li>
<li>I don’t recall which particular schools, but I have seen some linguistics departments that only offer graduate degrees (though they might offer some courses for undergraduates).</li>
</ol>

<p>Your last comment about “Arts of English” is not clear to me. Is that a minor in the English Language & Literature or in English Language & Linguistics? In either case, I think you would need to improve your abilities in English first. Is this program different from the field of linguistics about which you inquired above?</p>
