Aims, contents and method of the course

This lecture provides a survey of the research field of Applied Linguistics. We introduce and discuss the history of the field, sub-disciplines that are considered to be part of Applied Linguistics as well as their central theories, concepts and methods. A particular focus is placed on those research topics that are specifically dealt with at the Department of Linguistics.

Assessment and permitted materials
