Lucy Fellow promoted to Professor in Language Acquisition and Cognition
Dr Henriette Hendriks is Fellow and Vice-President at Lucy Cavendish College
The BA in Linguistics is wide-ranging and interdisciplinary in its approach, drawing on research and scholarship in physics, engineering, psychology and philosophy, as well as expertise from across the Faculty of Modern and Medieval Languages. Whilst the course does provide good preparation for vocational training in fields such as speech therapy, language technology, translation, interpreting and forensic linguistics, graduates go on to pursue a variety of careers.
Further information about the course can be found on the Department and University websites.
For other qualifications, see the main entrance requirements pages on the University website.
Mature students and those taking other qualifications are encouraged to contact our Admissions Office, to discuss the entry requirements for their qualifications.
We aim to admit up to two students per year.
