The UC Davis Cluster on Language Research is pleased to announce the Fifth
Annual UC Davis Symposium on Language Research. The purpose of this symposium
is to showcase current investigations on language, and to cultivate a
community of language researchers throughout the country. We welcome a wide
array of topics across all languages and disciplines related to linguistics,
as it is our goal to create an open and inclusive symposium to promote
dialogue between all types of language research.

Eligibility: All graduate and undergraduate students, lecturers, postdoctoral
and visiting scholars currently investigating language in some capacity are
encouraged to submit their research, preliminary or otherwise.

The UC Davis Symposium has been increasingly growing since it started 5 years
ago. Although it started as a local event, the presence of scholars coming
from different locations and backgrounds has been increasing with every
iteration of the symposium. It is our goal to keep widening the scope of our
event.
