GAINESVILLE, Fla., Dec. 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Linguistics is the study of language, so it is a very diverse field for students. It can lead to careers in business, teaching, research, and so much more. Having a strong understanding of language has numerous applications in many areas, which makes this a great option to explore.

Many of the courses that lead up to a linguistics degree involve a lot of reading and writing, which makes it easy to translate this into a distance-learning program.
