In the Master’s Programme in Linguistics with a specialisation in Italian you will deepen your knowledge of linguistics and your skills in the Italian language.

In addition, you will take the faculty-wide courses which are obligatory in the Linguistics programme. You will also train your academic language skills in Italian in both speech and in writing. A central module is represented by an independent research project within the area of your specialization, in the form of one or two essays.
