The International Student Conference "English Studies 2025: Discourse and Society", which will take place on 10-11 April in the Department of Philology.
This annual conference aims to provide a platform for students to present and discuss their research in English Studies, focusing on the role of discourse in language, literature and cultural representation. Its aims include fostering interdisciplinary conversations, bringing together students and scholars from different English Studies disciplines, providing an opportunity to link theoretical knowledge with practical research, and encouraging the development of critical thinking, creativity and interdisciplinary collaboration, encouraging the analysis of the impact of language on societal norms, values and cultural narratives.
The conference has become an international event, attracting students from different countries. The international aspect has not only broadened the exchange of ideas, but has also helped students to deepen their understanding of perspectives in English Language and Literature and Cultural Studies. Presentations by foreign scholars and a series of seminars organised by our faculty colleagues have enriched the conference experience, allowing participants to deepen their research and expand their academic network.
The conference becomes a dynamic platform for students to present their research and receive valuable feedback from faculty and peers. This contact with professors and other students fosters intellectual growth. Students become more aware of their academic skills and how they relate to their future careers.
It is also an opportunity to meet with colleagues, lecturers and other academic and social partners and to share experiences and ideas that will contribute to the development of their future visions for the study of the English language, literature and culture.
This conference is an important event for the academic community in English Studies. It has contributed to the professional development of generations of students of English Philology and English Studies.
