Since coming together as a department in 2018, BU Linguistics has grown into a vibrant and rapidly expanding research community—building new labs, welcoming outstanding students, and sharing innovative research with the world.
Your support helps make these opportunities possible as contributions directly support:
✈️ Graduate student conference travel
🌍 Fieldwork on languages around the world
🎓 Undergraduate research opportunities
🧠 Participants in student language research
Our Goal for Giving Day 2026
For Giving Day 2026, we hope to raise $2,000 to help close the gap between what our students need and what we can provide. This year, our students have requested approximately $13,000 in funding for research and conference travel, of which the department was only able to grant about $11,000. Rising costs for travel, accommodations, and conference registration mean that this support often falls short.
