    LinGhentian Doctorials 2019

    Faculty Room (Blandijnberg 2, 1st floor)

    https://www.linghentiandoctorials.ugent.be/

    The "LinGhentian Doctorials" conference - by and for PhD students in language studies - creates an opportunity for both seasoned PhD students and those who only just started their PhDs to present (some aspects of) their research to a broad audience of scholars in language studies. This allows for in-depth interaction with and feedback from scholars of various backgrounds and is meant to be complementary to the feedback of their supervisors. It is also a great opportunity to expand their networks to colleagues studying languages in different departments.

    This call is directed to PhD students of language studies across different departments of Ghent University:

    • Linguistics
    • Translation, Interpreting and Communication
    • Languages and Cultures
    • Psychology
    • ....

    The aim is to build bridges between theoretical, empirical and applied linguists and to strengthen the bonds between PhD students with somewhat different backgrounds and frameworks, methodologies, objects of study, etc.

    Participants can freely choose the topic and format of their presentation. Presentations should not exceed 20 minutes and will be followed by 10 minutes of discussion. Group presentations (e.g. projects) are eligible for an extended duration.
