General Institute Requirements (GIRs)
The General Institute Requirements include a Communication Requirement that is integrated into both the HASS Requirement and the requirements of each major; see details below.
Summary of Subject Requirements | Subjects |
---|---|
Science Requirement | 6 |
Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences (HASS) Requirement [between three and five subjects can be from the Departmental Program]; at least two of these subjects must be designated as communication-intensive (CI-H) to fulfill the Communication Requirement. | 8 |
Restricted Electives in Science and Technology (REST) Requirement | 2 |
Laboratory Requirement (12 units) [can be satisfied by either 24.905[J] or 24.909 in the Departmental Program] | 1 |
Total GIR Subjects Required for SB Degree | 17 |
Physical Education Requirement | |
---|---|
Swimming requirement, plus four physical education courses for eight points. |
Departmental Program
Choose at least two subjects in the major that are designated as communication-intensive (CI-M) to fulfill the Communication Requirement.
Required Subjects | Units | |
24.900 | Introduction to Linguistics | 12 |
or 24.9000 | How Language Works | |
24.901 | Language and Its Structure I: Phonology | 12 |
24.902 | Language and Its Structure II: Syntax | 12 |
24.903 | Language and Its Structure III: Semantics and Pragmatics | 12 |
24.918 | Workshop in Linguistic Research (CI-M) | 12 |
Select one of the following linguistic analysis subjects: | 12 | |
Field Methods in Linguistics (CI-M) 1 | ||
Advanced Topics in Linguistic Analysis (CI-M) | ||
Language Variation and Change (CI-M) | ||
Select one of the following philosophy, cognition, and computation subjects: | 12 | |
Artificial Intelligence 2 | ||
Introduction to Machine Learning 2 | ||
Quantitative Methods for Natural Language Processing 2 | ||
Computational Psycholinguistics 2 | ||

Introduction to Philosophy of Language | ||
Select one of the following experimental results subjects: | 12 | |
Language Acquisition | ||
Laboratory in Psycholinguistics 1 | ||
The Linguistic Study of Bilingualism | ||
Linguistic Phonetics | ||
Restricted Electives | ||
A coherent program of three additional subjects from linguistics, philosophy, or a related area 3 | 36 | |
Units in Major | 132 | |
Unrestricted Electives 4 | 84-120 | |
Units in Major That Also Satisfy the GIRs | (36-72) | |
Total Units Beyond the GIRs Required for SB Degree | 180 |
The units for any subject that counts as one of the 17 GIR subjects cannot also be counted as units required beyond the GIRs.
1 | Students who do not use 24.905[J] or 24.909 to satisfy the Laboratory Requirement may count a sixth subject from within the Departmental Program toward the HASS Requirement. |
2 | Subject has prerequisites that are outside of the program. |
3 | See the Linguistics and Philosophy subject listing for a list of available subjects. |
4 | This chart has been calculated based on an overlap of 36 units (three subjects) between the HASS General Institute Requirement and the departmental requirements. Students who develop a program of study with more overlap will be able to select more unrestricted electives to meet the number of total units beyond the GIRs required for an SB degree. |
