Meeting Description:

We are pleased to announce that the Third Silesian Meeting of Young Scholars
(SMYS) organised by the Institute of English, University of Silesia and the
Second Young Researchers International Symposium on Multilingualism (YRISM)
co-organised with the International Association of Multilingualism will be
held on 16-18 November 2017 in Szczyrk. 

This time, we as organisers of SMYS have decided to invite young scholars who
work in multilingualism to join us in this event, which aims both to promote
and facilitate the research work of young scholars by meeting with more
experienced researchers eager to share their experiences and expertise. Both
SMYS and YRISM were successful in their previous gatherings (Szczyrk (2013,
2014) and Donostia/San Sebastian (2016) respectively), so we have decided to
join forces. Since the forms of the previous events were slightly different,
we would like to preserve this distinction. We think that it will be a
worthwhile experience for both groups of young researchers to participate in
this dual formula meeting/symposium. The information below gives details of
SMYS’s and YRISM’s ways of structuring the event.

Call for Papers:

SMYS participant information:

The organisers of SMYS wish to encourage PhD candidates to present their
contributions as well as to participate without a paper in the workshops and
discussions. With this Conference, we would like to promote research projects
of young linguists at the beginning of their career as well as to help younger
and less experienced scholars with their theses. Therefore, we would like to
invite all PhD candidates who share an interest in linguistics and its
sub-fields to attend. As the Conference will cover a variety of themes, we
hope to attract young researchers investigating in the fields of applied
linguistics, translation studies and psycholinguistics. All those wishing to
contribute papers or just to attend workshops are welcome to participate in
the Conference. 

The following thematic Ph.D. workshops will be chaired and facilitated by:
Linguistics: Piotr Mamet, Adam Wojtaszek
Translation: Andrzej Łyda, Krystyna Warchał
Applied linguistics/SLA/Teacher training: Danuta Gabryś-Barker, Mirosław
Pawlak
Maria Wysocka
Multlingualism: Jean-Marc Dewaele, Danuta Gabryś-Barker, Pilar Safont 

To take part in these sessions, please send a 300-word description of your
thesis proposal, which will then be presented by you (20 minutes) and
discussed with the facilitators and other PhD students during the workshop. 
Paper abstracts (300 words) with a title SMYS 2017 should be sent by 31st May
2017 to our e-mail address: smys.yrism.2017 at gmail.com

YRISM participant information:

As took place during the first symposium in Donostia in 2016 (DISM), we would
like to follow the idea put into practice by Prof. Jasone Cenoz. This
symposium will bring together young scholars (PhD candidates and those having
defended their PhD in the last 5 years) who work on multilingualism from
different perspectives: e.g. cognitive, linguistic, sociolinguistic or
educational. Young researchers working on projects that focus on
multilingualism will have a chance to present their ideas in a less
traditional format than is in the case with SMYS. Senior scholars can also
attend the symposium, as co-authors of the work presented by young
researchers. 

To take part in these sessions, please send a 300-word abstract including your
project/research study. Participants will have a chance to introduce their
projects in a 5-minutes slot to other participants and facilitators. This
presentation will be followed by a poster presentation session, in which each
individual participant will have a chance to talk to different facilitators,
experienced researchers in multilingualism and members of the IAM Board (and
more).
Poster abstracts (300 words) should be sent bearing a reference to YRISM 2017
by 31st May 2017 to our e-mail address: smys.yrism.2017 at gmail.com
