The Master's degree course in Applied Linguistics is a bilingual course (German/English) that focuses on human language in its use, processing and acquisition. It includes the analysis of linguistic communication in different social and cultural contexts, the investigation of the cognitive processes associated with it and the feedback application of the results to practical linguistic and communicative problems. The degree program consists of basic and applied modules in the three areas mentioned.

In terms of content, the focus of the course is on the study of language from two complementary perspectives, which place the connections between communication and society on the one hand and the connections between communication and cognition on the other. This includes the study of language use, processing and acquisition using corpus linguistic, discourse analytical, sociolinguistic and psycho-/neurolinguistic methods.
