Advisement

M.A. candidates receive advisement from the department's Graduate Advisor. Upon arrival on campus, you should contact the Graduate Advisor to discuss prerequisite courses which must be completed and plan the program of coursework which leads to the master's degree. The role of the Graduate Advisor is to insure that you acquire an appropriate depth and breadth of exposure to the various subfields of linguistics during the time spent at UNM.

Ph.D. candidates are initially advised by the faculty member who agrees to fulfill that role as one of the conditions for admission to the doctoral program. You should also feel free to consult the Graduate Advisor for guidance. As you develop your program of studies, you will set up and work with a committee on studies composed of three faculty.
