NTU-UT Linguistics Festa 2023
Since 2016, the NTU-UT Linguistics Festa has provided a yearly research forum for faculty members and graduate students in the Graduate Institute of Linguistics at National Taiwan University (NTU) and the Department of Language and Information Sciences at The University of Tokyo (UT). It allows researchers at all levels to exchange novel ideas, discuss latest research findings, and brainstorm potential collaborative projects. In the past, Festas 2016 and 2017 were held at NTU, and Festas 2018 and 2019 were held at UT. Due to the pandemic of COVID-19, Festas 2020, 2021, and 2022 went virtual. We are delighted to announce that this year, we will hold this Festa face-to-face at NTU on August 26-27! Below is the concrete information about the Festa.
