Courses Under Linguistics Degree
On this article, I am going to list out some Linguistics course outlines in Nigeria Universities which you will study before you can to become a graduate of Linguistics. Normally, a course outline should contain; course name, course description, course hours etc… but I am going to skip that information and go straight to Linguistics subjects for university students.
I will only list out the course names excluding GST Courses and those courses with part II and III to avoid too much information. There is no guarantee that the listed Linguistics subjects (courses) will be fully covered in your school because universities in Nigeria does not use a uniform curriculum.
