Summer Institute of Linguistics (SIL)

In cooperation with SIL International, the Department of Applied Linguistics and TESOL offers a high quality linguistics program enabling students to get in one department the coursework needed for either a generalist or a specialist approach to culturally appropriate field-based projects, such as language surveys, literacy or translation. Experienced instructors teach courses in phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, literacy and Bible translation based on the field studies of SIL workers around the world. These courses are equivalent to those offered at other SIL schools and are recognized as valid for membership in Wycliffe and similar organizations.
