>1. PRESENTATION
>
> The department of Linguistics at the University of Geneva offers a
>postgraduate program in linguistics leading up to the DEA certificate at th=
>e
>Faculty of Letters. The DEA is the first step of the doctoral program. The
>DEA program also offers intensive =8Ccatching up=B9 courses for students with
>limited backgrounds in one or more of the subdomains represented in the
>program, allowing them to pursue doctoral studies in parallel.
>
> The Department of Linguistics specializes in three domains, computational
>linguistics, comparative syntax and discourse analysis, and these domains
>are all represented in the DEA program.
>
>The computational linguistics section is centered on the LATL (Laboratoire
>d=B9Analyse et de Traitement du Langage) and is primarily engaged in the
>fields of parsing, automatic generation and translation, and speech
>processing. (Director: Professor Eric Wehrli,
>Eric.Wehrli@lettres.unige.ch).
>
> Research in the comparative syntax section develops the Principles and
>Parameters model in Generative Grammar and specializes in Romance, Germanic
>and Semitic languages. (Director: Professor Luigi Rizzi,
>Luigi.Rizzi@lettres.unige.ch).
>
> Discourse Analysis constitutes the third subdomain in the Department. It
>hosts research on the organization of discourse within the framework of a
>modular theory as well as on the pragmatics of temporal inference.
>(Director: Professor Eddy Roulet, Eddy.Roulet@lettres.unige.ch).
>
>2. TEACHING AND COURSES
>
>The DEA seminars usually last one semester and are offered either in the
>winter or summer sessions. Students are free to choose a specialization or
>develop a program =E0 la carte, with the approval of the director. In
additio=
>n
>to specialized seminars, the linguistics DEA program offers a choice of
>intensive =8Ccatching up=B9 courses in Syntax, Semantics & Pragmatics and
>Computational Linguistics. In addition, research seminars in the three majo=
>r
>domains are held regularly throughout the academic year.
