Meeting Description:

On Saturday, 29 March 2025, the Department of English and
Communication (ENGL) at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU)
will host the PolyU Undergraduate Conference on Applied Linguistics
and Language Studies (PolyU-CALLS). PolyU-CALLS is an annual all-day,
in-person conference featuring the work of current undergraduate
students in Applied Linguistics, Communication, and related
disciplines from universities in Hong Kong and across the globe. Last
year’s PolyU-CALLS saw around 150 attendees from throughout Hong Kong,
mainland China, Korea, and Thailand, as covered in this news feature
article. Please note that in-person attendance is mandatory for all
presenters. Remote participation will not be accommodated.

Current undergraduate students are invited to present papers
encompassing basic research, methodological development, critical
essays, or other scholarly activities they have worked on during their
studies. Presentation topics include:

•    Applied Language Studies
•    AI and Language Technologies
•    Language Education (Teaching and Learning)
•    Navigating Communication in the Digital World, the Internet, and
Social Media
•    Next Generation Workplaces, Healthcare, Public Health, and
Multicultural Business
•    Linguistic Landscape and Urban Spaces
•    Intercultural Communication and Migration
•    Language in Pop Culture

PolyU-CALLS provides an opportunity for undergraduate students to
showcase their research and creative and academic work to an audience
of peers, instructors, and scholars. Students who are accepted to
PolyU-CALLS 2025 will give an oral presentation of around 15 minutes,
with an additional 10 minutes for Q&A. Submission of a completed
written paper is not required.
