Independent research may be carried out by students as part of their regular
course of study under the rubric of Linguistics 85 or Cognitive Science 85.
Interested students should approach individual faculty members to serve as
advisors for such projects, though the projects must be approved by the
Steering Committee of the Program in Linguistics and Cognitive Science.
In addition, faculty members regularly make available a number of research
opportunities for undergraduate students. The nature of these opportunities is
highly variable. Some are for single terms, while other require two terms or
more. Some are available to any interested student, while others are only open
to majors in the program. Some are strictly extra-curricular, while others may
include the possibility of receiving academic credit. The follow links provide
additional information on commonly available research opportunities.
