As a joint major, you have two DUSes. The Linguistics DUS (linguistics.dus@nyu.edu) advises you on the linguistics part of your major. Your language courses should be chosen in consultation with the other department; a summary of the requirements can be found in the CAS bulletin.
The course called Societies and Social Sciences: Linguistic Perspectives(V55.0660), which is no longer offered, will also satisfy the introductory course requirement.
