The Master of Applied Linguistics at CDU is a postgraduate degree that prepares you for analysis, evaluation, and application of linguistic understandings to language, its use, and its role in various contexts. You will build theoretical foundations in applied linguistics for developing knowledge and awareness in the field that targets developments in practice and research. The focus of the program is on contextualised evaluation of language, which can be applied to theoretical analysis or contribute to the continuing professional development of linguists, language teachers, TESOL practitioners, and education policy makers.
