UCLA is a dynamic place to study applied linguistics, a discipline that investigates language with relevance to issues in the everyday world. Situated in discursive and interactional contexts, language is essential to all aspects of life from personal to social. Interdisciplinary in nature, applied linguistics sheds new light on the nature of language and language use.
The UCLA Department of Applied Linguistics is at the forefront of research in the field of applied linguistics and offers programs leading to the Bachelor of Arts, Master of Arts, and Ph.D. degrees, as well as two undergraduate minors and a graduate certificate program. Faculty members, including affiliated members in the Anthropology, Asian Languages and Cultures, Chicana and Chicano Studies, Education, Linguistics, Psychology, and Sociology Departments whose participation reinforces the interdisciplinary nature of applied linguistics research, represent a wide range of expertise and experience in language-related research. The Department of Applied Linguistics also administers the English as a Second Language Placement Exam (ESLPE) and English as a Second Language Courses, which are taught by its lecturers and graduate students.
