MA Language Policy and Planning

1 Year On Campus Masters Program

Bangor University

Program Overview

The number of bilingual and multilingual communities and workplaces is increasing, and language planning is an area of increasing importance. As a result, there is increasing demand for individuals with the necessary knowledge and skills to produce effective strategies and systems that promote linguistic equality. As linguistic considerations become a priority for many areas - development, planning, education, health, IT, marketing - staff in a wide variety of areas need to develop understanding and skills in language planning. In addition, the publication of the Welsh Language (Wales) Measure (2011) has changed the legal framework for the use of Welsh and therefore means an ever increasing demand for a bilingual, diverse workforce.
