Description:
The Yerevan Academy for Linguistics and Philosophy (YALP) is an annual
intensive summer program in linguistics and philosophy. YALP started
out in 2017 and brings each year over 50 undergraduate and graduate
students together. It hosts students from Armenia and other countries
in the region (broadly construed).

The purpose of the academy is to provide an opportunity for students
to develop their knowledge and skills, possibly with a view toward
applying to doctoral programs in philosophy or linguistics (including
programs in the USA and Europe).

Participation in the Yerevan Academy for Linguistics and Philosophy is
free of charge.  We are currently trying to raise money to help defray
housing costs for students, but at the moment students should plan
their budgets on the assumption that they will be responsible for the
cost of their own housing while participating in YALP.

Linguistic Field(s): Phonology
                     Semantics
                     Sociolinguistics

                     Typology

Tuition Explanation: Participation in the Yerevan Academy for
Linguistics and Philosophy is free of charge. But students will be
