There is also regular collaboration with linguists at the University of Brighton, which is next door to the University of Sussex. The current research strategy of the Subject Group is to focus on aspects of the theory of language change, with a secondary focus on the linguistics and sociolinguistics of minority languages. Undergraduate programmes We offer a range of BA degrees in Linguistics and in English Language. Every student is registered for a specified Major programme in a specified School of Study, and the range of School courses available is different for each School. There are some 25 students a year on BA Linguistics courses.
All students have access to good computing facilities.
