3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to the major issues and results in neurolinguistics, the study of the representation of language in the brain. Major topics include localization of language function in the brain, the use of linguistic knowledge in producing and comprehending words and sentences, and the effects of brain damage on language behavior.
-
3.00 Credits
This course investigates the relationship between language and race in order to accurately and objectively evaluate many common beliefs about the connections between the two. How all languages systematically organize sounds, grammar, and meanings with a special emphasis on the structure of African American English is demonstrated. Also investigated is how particular ways of speaking may or may not affect thought patterns or social identity. Public policy issues involving language and race are also examined. Note: This course can be used to satisfy the university Core Studies in Race (RS) requirement. Although it may be usable towards graduation as a major requirement or university elective, it cannot be used to satisfy any of the university GenEd requirements. See your advisor for further information.

3.00 Credits
This introductory course to the field of speech-language pathology examines the impact of communication deviations and disorders on the individual and society, including the disabling nature of various disorders; their prevention, identification, assessment, and treatment; and the ways in which individuals deal with the social, educational, and vocational effects of these disorders. Includes observations within the scheduled class periods.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduces quantitative research methods in the communication sciences. Covers a variety of study domains including field/descriptive, correlational, survey, clinical, ethnographic, and experimental research designs. Students learn various research methods for addressing particular types of research questions. Concepts covered include types of variables, parametric and nonparametric inferential statistics, sampling designs, hypothesis testing, and publication policies.
-
4.00 Credits
This course examines the subsystems of language that govern (1) the physical properties of speech sounds and (2) the cognitive representation and function of speech sounds in the grammatical system that underlies spoken language. The course also focuses on (1) the acquisition of a body of knowledge relating to phonetic taxonomy, (2) the mastery of techniques of data description & analysis in phonetics (the study of speech production & perception), (3) analytical reasoning skills, and (4) techniques of data description & analysis in phonology.
Prerequisite:
CSC+DIS 1108 (0108) or equivalent
-
4.00 Credits
The focus of this course is a basic functional knowledge of the lexical and syntactic structure of natural language and an understanding of what is currently known and suggested about how our subconscious knowledge of lexical and syntactic structure is put to use in the comprehension and production of language. The course also focuses on basic linguistic structure underlying human communication, including lexical structure, morphological analysis, syntactic phrase structure, and constituent deletion and displacement.
Prerequisite:
CSC+DIS 1108 (0108) or equivalent
-
4.00 Credits
An in-depth study of speech production, including respiration, phonation, articulation, and acoustics. An introduction also to the domain of speech perception. Includes classroom and laboratory instruction, basic readings, and current theoretical papers.
Prerequisite:
PHYSICS 1003 (C067), and CSC+DIS 2209 [or CSC+DIS 2207 (0207) and CSC+DIS 2208 (0208)]
-
4.00 Credits
The physics of sound, acoustics, sound measurement, anatomy, and physiology of the auditory periphery, neuroanatomy, and neurophysiology of the auditory central system, and an introduction to psychoacoustics.
Prerequisite:
PHYSICS 1003 (C067)
-
4.00 Credits
Introduction to the anatomy, organization, and function of the human nervous system, with an emphasis on the disorders that result from damage to the brain.
-
3.00 Credits
This course investigates the structure of sentences in natural language, drawing data from a number of languages including English. Theoretical issues related to the analysis of a variety of sentence patterns are explored.
