Our Study Programs
Is the ISLE Institute the right place for your study interests?
We put great emphasis on theory and on qualitative as well as quantitative methods in the scientific study of language. These foci require not only a profound interest in language per se, but also strong committment to acquire analytical and statistical knowledge, and computational and technical skills.
