CALL FOR PAPERS

We are pleased to announce that The 14th Symposium of Students in English will be organised by the English Department on 3-4 April 2009. The event is open to undergraduates and MA students who take an interest in research connected to any aspect of British and American literature, language and culture.

Proposals for presentations (20 minutes) or workshops (50 minutes) should be submitted by 15 March 2009.  We favour communication and the free sharing of ideas, therefore participants are encouraged to present their papers in a way which stimulates interaction and engages the audience.

We also intend to publish a selection of participants' papers in the volume of conference proceedings edited by the English Department.

We may be able to provide accommodation for the nights of Thursday 2 April and Friday 3 April for up to 10 students, in either student dorms or staying with host families, on a first come – first served basis. We regret that no contribution can be made towards the cost of travel and meals. The students who are granted free accommodation will be notified in due course and will be asked to confirm their participation.

All participants will be contacted via e-mail for details on accommodation, arrival and program.

There are two ways to register:

Students from Timisoara should submit their paper proposals at the English Department, room 422 (University of the West).

Students from other cities should fill in the registration form below and send it by e-mail to studentsymposium@yahoo.com .
