SLAT Area of Specialization: Linguistic Dimensions of L2 Learning

Dr. Harley began working as an Assistant Professor at the University of Arizona in the Department of Linguistics in 1999. Besides the Linguistics Department, she is also part of the Cognitive Science program and the Second Language Acquisition and Teaching program. She works on syntax, morphology and lexical semantics, with a special interest in argument structure cross-linguistically. Together with Maria and Santos Leyva,  she is investigating the grammar of the Hiaki (Yaqui) language, a Uto-Aztecan language spoken in Mexico and Arizona. She has supervised over 20 doctoral students, and am hugely proud of every one. See Dr. Harley's web page for a fuller description of her research and teaching, for a relatively complete catalog of her publications (most downloadable) and for a complete list of supervisees.
