English Linguistics - Welcome Page

Welcome to the English Linguistics Section of the English Department!

Prof. Dr. Edgar W. Schneider, the Chair of English Linguistics, heads a dynamic group of scholars whose research focuses on language variation and varieties of English - see our Research Center for World Englishes.

Our contacts and publications are international in orientation and global in outreach.

Prof. Dr. Roswitha Fischer's research interests lie in stylistic variation and English for Special Purposes.

In our teaching we are committed to highest standards of education, including both a broad coverage of the fundamentals of the discipline and an emphasis on our "profile" areas, and to the creation of a collaborative climate.
