LANGUAGE AND LOGIC
General Information
The Bachelor of Arts four-year Combined Honours degree program in Language and Logic provides students with the ability to engage in effective and reasoned communication. To acquire this specialized knowledge, students are provided with a thorough foundation in language theory, linguistics, writing and composition, various communication media, speech, rhetoric, logic and reasoning skills. Students will also be introduced to another language.
Although the Language and Logic Combined Honours degree program is administered by Languages, Literatures and Cultures, faculty members teaching in the program come from several different programs. They are listed under the "Instructors" section in the program in which they normally offer courses. Courses that fulfill the requirements of the degree are offered by Communication, Media and Film, Computer Science, English, French, Modern Languages and Philosophy.
The Language and Logic program must be combined with another program in a double major. Among the natural choices of a second major are any of the disciplines which contribute courses to the program. However, students may select almost any other discipline as a second major.
Students wishing to major in the Language and Logic program must contact Languages, Literatures and Cultures to obtain academic counselling. Future plans to enroll in a graduate or professional program should be taken into account when choosing the second major or optional courses.
