Electives Recommended for LTI graduate students:
Linguistics

These are some recommended courses from the Linguistics Department at Pitt. (Cross-registration at "Pitt" (the University of Pittsburgh) is easy to do.) We still have to check with CMU's Modern Languages, Philosophy, and English departments. They may have some courses that are suitable for remedials or electives.

The hotlinks below point to parts of the list of courses at the Linguistics Department at Pitt. There is also a Pitt college-level Linguistics course descriptions page. It only shows the current semester's courses.

• Remedial:This could serve as a remedial course for LTI students with no background in Linguistics:
  1950 Introduction to Linguistics (note: LTI Masters credit only)

• Electives:These are possible electives for LTI students:
  1443 American Indian Languages (note: LTI Masters credit only)
