Comparative Indo-European Linguistics

In this one-year programme, you will be able to study languages that are taught by not many academic institutions, such as Armenian, Albanian, Avestan and Lithuanian. Students who want to combine Indo-European Linguistics with an in-depth study of a language or a group of languages will be able to take advantage of the expertise offered by the Faculty of Humanities in such relevant subjects as Indology, Classics, Slavic, Persian and languages of the Ancient Near East. The purpose of this programme is to determine the languages' relationship to each other as well as the changes in the phonological, morphological and syntactic structure of the languages in their historical continuity. The ultimate aim is to explore the possibilities to reconstruct the language that was at the basis of the separate Indo-European languages.
