· Our graduates in interdisciplinary linguistics will advance to graduate schools in the relevant fields, or work for government- or corporate-funded institutes and technology-intensive start-ups. With excellent proficiency in foreign languages and knowledge in interdisciplinary linguistics, they will have opportunities to work abroad.
