About Master’s Program,
The MA in Applied Linguistics examines how languages are learned and used, and the roles they play in society. Courses are divided into three clusters that give you a broad knowledge base in language, theories of learning, and second-language pedagogy. The city of Montreal is an ideal location to explore issues related to language policy, politics and teaching. You will benefit from a multilingual urban setting that includes a high proportion of trilingual youth. Join a diverse cohort of students who are pursuing research in second language teaching, psycholinguistics, oral and written production and the use of technologies in language teaching. Languages that students have worked on include Arabic, Chinese, French, Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish, Ukrainian and many more.
Master’s Program Degree Eligibility with GPA,
Master’s, diploma and graduate certificate programs typically require applicants to have completed a bachelor’s/baccalaureate or equivalent with high standing.
International applicants should refer to the equivalencies by country. Meeting these minimum admission requirements does not guarantee admission to Concordia.
You may need to submit a portfolio, additional documents and test scores with your application, or secure a supervisor before you apply. Be sure to review the additional requirements specific to your program.
Master’s Funding Coverage,
Funding packages are generally available for students in thesis-based programs. They come in the form of awards, teaching and research assistantships are offered at the time of admission to most students to allow them to focus on their research and studies. Research and thesis-based students are automatically considered for all entrance graduate awards when they apply to Concordia, provided they meet eligibility criteria. No separate application is required.
