The University of Cambridge
First Postgraduate Conference in Language Research

SCOPE: The aim of the University of Cambridge First Postgraduate
Conference in Language Research (CamLing) is to provide a platform for
postgraduate students from a range of disciplines to present new
research to an interested and friendly audience.

The scope of the conference is deliberately broader than that
currently offered at post-graduate level, and in this way we hope to
create an annual forum for interdisciplinary discussion, bringing
together the disparate threads of research in language. We therefore
invite postgraduate students to submit abstracts for oral and poster
presentations on ANY topic of linguistic interest.

The University of Cambridge First Postgraduate Conference in Language
Research (CamLing) is organised with the support of the newly founded
University of Cambridge Institute of Language Research (CILR).
