Europe)
Website: https://www.eggschool.org

Dates: 27-Jul-2026 - 07-Aug-2026

Minimum Education Level: students at any stage of their education.

Focus: The EGG is about generative linguistics: syntax, morphology,
semantics, phonology.
Description:
For 30 years, the EGG Summer School for Generative Linguistics has a
clear and enduring mission: to provide affordable, high-level training
in generative linguistics for students and early-career researchers,
while fostering exchange and discussion between linguists from East
and West in an open, grassroots, low-key, friendly atmosphere. Over
the years (see previous schools ), the EGG has become a unique space
for intensive and collaborative education in generative grammar,
bringing together cutting-edge theoretical work and close interaction
between students and scholars
This summer the EGG takes place in the wonderful city of Brno / Czech
Republic.
Have a look at the teachers and the classes taught:

Tuition: 270E
Tuition Explanation: The registration fees for students represent the
bare accommodation price for 13 nights (Sunday to Saturday) charged by
the dorm. We ask 20 Euros more from Westerners to support our costs,
which students living in former communist countries (below:
Easterners) do not pay: the EGG is traditionally geared towards former
communist countries.
The regular accommodation is in double rooms (you can choose your room
mate in the registration form), but single rooms are also available.
If you need to arrive a few days early or stay a few days after the
school ends, or if you want to stay for a shorter period, please let
us know in the registration form.
All this comes down to:
    two weeks (13 nights: Sunday July 26th to Saturday August 8th) in
a double room: 270E
    two weeks (13 nights: Sunday July 26th to Saturday August 8th) in
a single room: 470E
    Easterners: two weeks (13 nights: Sunday July 26th to Saturday
August 8th) in a double room: 250E
    two weeks (13 nights: Sunday July 26th to Saturday August 8th) in
a single room: 450E
    attendance only (no accommodation): 100E
Financial Aid Applications accepted until 31-May-2026
