You will explore the evolution of English from a set of dialects on an island to a global lingua franca, and examine ways that English continues to change today.

You will develop an extensive set of qualitative and quantitative research skills, and practise oral and written communication intensively.

You will be eminently employable in careers ranging from journalism, media, publishing and marketing to teaching English internationally, and may pursue further study toward fields like speech pathology or speech recognition.
