Course description

The MA Multilingualism program at the University of Konstanz's Department of Linguistics delves into cutting-edge linguistics research, focusing on multilingualism and the individual. This program explores bilingual and multilingual language acquisition, covering bilingual development in early childhood, second-language (L2) acquisition in both children and adults, as well as third-language (L3) acquisition and heritage language acquisition. The program also examines multilingualism in society.
