SP characteristics
The degree program Empirical and Comparative Linguistics aims to train empirically oriented linguists who will have both a deeper knowledge of the structure of Czech language and the ability to use this knowledge while comparing Czech with other languages of the world. The program differs from other, more traditional philological programs in its emphasis on empirical methodology. Students acquire knowledge of empirical methods; they get acquainted with various fields of linguistic research and they focus both on Czech and on comparative linguistic studies. The program is distinctive because it offers the students to specialize on selected linguistic subfields in great depth.
