The Ph.D. program in Linguistics at Stony Brook University is designed to prepare students for advanced research across all core areas of theoretical linguistics. This includes specializations in syntax, semantics, morphology, phonology, and phonetics, as well as in first and second language acquisition. The program also emphasizes experimental and computational approaches to these linguistic subfields. Students benefit from interdisciplinary collaboration with faculty and students in related departments such as Psychology, Music, Computer Science, Philosophy, and the Institute for Advanced Computational Science (IACS).
