Psycholinguistics Lab: Courses, Discussion Groups, Lectures Series


Undergraduate students interested in psycholinguistics should start with Ling 412 (following one of the prereq options).

Graduate students (from any department, at the MA- or PhD-level) should begin with Ling 640Y and Ling 632, which can be taken in either order or concurrently. Students planning on writing a working paper or Master's thesis in psycholinguistics should take Ling 640Y, Ling 632, and inferential statistics at the earliest points possible, and follow Ling 640Y with at least one seminar in psycholinguistics or a related area. Students who would like to include psycholinguistics as one of the areas for the comprehensive exam should plan to take at least three 600-level or higher courses in psycholinguistics and regularly attend discussion groups and colloquia on psycholinguistic topics.
