The aim of the conference
The aim is to promote and support the research in the field of applied linguistics, to connect young researchers with each other, to support postgraduate education, and to promote Hungarian and international scientific integration.
The topics of applied linguistics are addressed at an advanced level in many PhD programs in Hungary, however, the students of these doctoral programs have few opportunities to gain insight into the work at other programs and to find out about each other’s main research topics, questions and methods. Our conferences aim to present an opportunity for such meetings and discussions.
The aim of the conference is to provide an opportunity to introduce high quality PhD research in applied linguistics, to discuss questions and issues occurring in the various areas and to help young researchers to network with each other and other representatives of the field.
The applications of all PhD students are welcome at the conference, regardless of what (doctoral) program they are in. MA students may also submit applications.
