Focus: The aim of the Summer School of
Linguistics is to give an opportunity to students and young researchers who are
interested in language and its use to get acquainted with the range of current
achievements in linguistic research. The lectures usually cover various research
fields such as the first and second language acquisition, psycholinguistics,
typology and language contact, corpus linguistics, neurolinguistics, phonetics, etc.
The Summer School of Linguistics aims also to have an important social impact. In
other words, it should be not only a place where one can get useful information of
the current state of linguistics but also a place where people interested in
language and its use meet, discuss various issues and possibly start to collaborate
on various future projects.
