CMU’s Linguistics BA sits at the crossroads of cognitive science and natural-language technology. You’ll dissect syntax trees by morning and fine-tune speech-recognition models by afternoon, collaborating with AI researchers designing inclusive voice assistants. Field-methods courses partner with Pittsburgh’s immigrant communities to document endangered dialects, and the Phonetics Lab’s ultrasound tongue-imaging lets you visualize articulation in real time.
