Department of Linguistics

COURSES

1. Programme requirements 
The MA comprises 120 ECTS completed in two years: nine courses (90 ECTS) across the first three semesters and a thesis (30 ECTS) in the fourth semester.

2. Curriculum logic 

  • Students build their profile through core/compulsory training (including Research Methods) and a wide range of electives across linguistic subfields.
  • The exact annual offering and timetable may vary; therefore the Courses page should clearly point to the authoritative “offering/timetable” location (Greek “Programme/Offered courses” sections if that is where it is maintained).
