Hi Joe,<br>
Here is what I teach/have taught in the realm of historical linguistics at KU Leuven (Dept. of linguistics):<br>
<br>
1. 'Nederlandse taalkunde II', a 8 ECTS (39h) course on external history of Dutch (Ba2): from the emergence of language in our hominin ancestry to 21st century Dutch (incl. history, historical texts (Old, Middle and Early Modern Dutch) ...)<br>
<br>
2. 'Nederlandse taalkunde III', a 4 ECTS (26h) course on internal history of Dutch (Ba3): historical phonology, morphology and syntax from Proto-Indo-European to Present-day Dutch<br>
<br>
3. 'Nederlandse taalkunde: Verandering & variatie', a 6 ECTS (39h): hands-on course on quantitative approaches to morphosyntactic change in Dutch (Ma-level)<br>
<br>
4. 'Diachronic linguistics', a 6 ECTS (26h) course on diachrony, not specifically on Dutch. I have taught this course a couple of years ago, but I now have a research position, with a reduction of my teaching load, and I will not teach this course until 2020 or something.<br>
<br>
Courses 1, 2, and 3 are in Dutch. Course 4 is in English, unless all students are Dutch-speaking. Then the course is in Dutch.<br>
<br>
There are other language-specific courses on historical linguistics (for French, German, English and Spanish), but, apart from one historiographic course, no other courses exclusively devoted to non-language-specific historical linguistics, as far as I know.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Freek Van de Velde.<br>

Thanks for all the responses, to the list and directly to me. If there?s interest, I?m happy to post a summary, at least in general terms.<br>

<br>
Coming in on this a bit late, let me mention what we do at (The) Ohio State University -- as far as Joe's specific question about specialized historical linguistics classes, we have regular, on-the-books, advanced courses in historical phonology and historical morphology, and this year for the first time our still-new colleague Ashwini Deo is offering a course on semantic change that is likely to be a regular offering too. But even the historical phonology and morphology classes are offered only every other year (and for reasons of staffing the historical phonology class has not been offered for a couple of years but is likely to be offered next year). We have a regular grad-level offering on language contact that is certainly relevant to the historical enterprise in the department.<br>
<br>
Other specialized topics, like the history of particular languages (e.g. Greek, to take an arbitrary language) or language families (e.g. Indo-European), are done essentially as "topics" courses.<br>
<br>
These more advanced and specialized classes are in addition to a low-level (undergrad-only) and an upper-level (undergrad majors and grad students) introduction to historical linguistics.<br>
<br>
I'd be interested in a summary if it isn't too much work, Joe. Where historical linguistics fits in with the visibility and profile of departments is an important matter for us to consider.<br>
