On the forefront of solving crime, the M.A. in Forensic Linguistics enjoys broad appeal both within and outside the legal and criminal justice fields to include: offender profiles; threat and risk analysis; authorship analysis and authentication in historical research; sociological analysis; and academic plagiarism.

The topics include areas such as Sociolinguistics; Criminological Theory; and Legal and Ethical Issues surrounding the topic of Forensic Linguistics. We combine our expertise in multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches to the subject matter from legal, sociological, psychological, and criminological perspectives. Together with our partners in the relevant professions, California University of Pennsylvania professors are uniquely positioned to offer graduate-level programs in Forensic Linguistics with a projected start of Spring 2012.

Students with bachelor’s degrees in English, linguistics, criminology, sociology, criminal justice, and psychology are particularly suited for the M.A. in Forensic Linguistics, but the completion of any undergraduate degree will be acceptable.

Hofstra University, Hempstead, NY, (USA)


Forensic Linguistics Applications:

This intensive two week forensic linguistics course can either be taken for 3 graduate credits, or as a non-credit course with a certificate of completion. This course is co-taught by Robert A. Leonard, Director of the Forensic Linguistics Project, and James R. Fitzgerald, former FBI Supervisory Special Agent.

The course presents a case-based approach to solving legal and law enforcement problems through linguistic analysis, focusing on three major applications of Forensic Linguistics:

1. Demographic Linguistic Profiles2. Authorship Analysis3. Threat Level Analysis

The course also introduces sociolinguistic variation as a crucial theoretical component of analysis and elucidates, through lecture, case study, and workshop, forensic linguistic responses to terror, threat assessment and criminal communications.

Upon completion of the course, students will be able to assess which cases are appropriate for forensic linguistic analysis, explain the tools linguistics can bring to an investigation, and have learned through the workshops the principles of applying these tools to data from actual cases.
