Welcome to the Second Language Acquisition and Teaching (SLAT) Ph.D. program at the University of Arizona! SLAT is home to some of the most innovative and creative work around teaching multiple languages to multiple types of students in multiple contexts. We hope you will find resources throughout this site to explore opportunities to apply to study with us or to start a collaborative research partnership or engagement initiative with us.
