The Linguistics BA at Harvard offers scientific inquiry into how languages are formed, processed, and diversified. Core courses in phonology, syntax, and semantics intersect with computational linguistics, neurolinguistics, and language revitalization. Undergraduate researchers collaborate with the Linguistics Lab, conduct fieldwork on understudied languages, and leverage data-science tools—skills prized in AI, law, education, and tech.
