The StuTS (student conference on linguistics) represents a forum for students of linguistics in all its shades and varieties. It offers students an opportunity to present research projects and results to a wider audience, opening up the possibility of fruitful discussion and exchange of ideas with people interested in similar and adjacent areas of research.

There are two possible forms for the presentation/discussion of your submissions:

Talks

In order for the conference to be of interest for all sorts of students, from undergraduates who just started their studies to advanced and graduate students, we want to encourage a broad spectrum of submissions. They can be based on bachelor, master or other theses, but we also welcome submissions springing from work done in any of your courses or from your own research initiative. The topics may pertain to all branches of linguistic research: general and theoretical, computational, clinical, psycho- and neurolinguistics as well as (linguistic aspects of) philological studies of individual languages. There are 45 and 60 min slots available, including 15 min for discussion respectively.

Workshops

It is possible to hold a workshop in order to interactively present content or to jointly develop ideas. This might include discussions on a topic, work in groups, methodological tutorials etc. A workshop is based on interaction between the referee and all the participants, and should be clearly distinct from a talk in this respect. The duration of a workshop should not exceed 60 min including the final discussion.

If you want to hold a talk or workshop, please send an email with an abstract in plain text format (if you need another format, please notify us) and the subject: "Abstract: [title/topic] [duration]" to register@48.stuts.eu. We will try to accomodate all submissions, but in case this is impossible due to time restrictions, we will have to make a selection. You will be notified if you have been admitted. In your registration, please remember to fill in the information about your contribution in the appropriate place.

It is possible to hold a talk or offer a workshop even if you have already registered. In that case, please contact us on the above email address.

The deadline for submissions is September 30 2010, but we highly encourage earlier submissions for organisatory reasons.

The deadline for submissions has - until further notice - been extended to October 30 2010, for as long as free slots are available.
