Current Proseminars

Proseminars are the special topics advanced graduate courses taught in our department, with course numbers in the 250 range. Typically these are prepared lecture courses given by faculty, but with strong student participation. They usually assume that enrollees will have already taken the core graduate courses in the relevant area.

This page reports proseminars being taught in the current academic year. We also include other graduate courses when their content has changed for the current offering. To view current academic year proseminar offerings, as well as the time and location, please go to the Linguistics Department’s Course Schedule page.

For an archive of old proseminar topics, please visit the archive page.

2025-26 proseminar information will be posted here once the information is available.
