Calgary Summer School: September 6th – 11th 2010
The world in which we live is increasingly multilingual. The forces of globalization, migration, and mobility have created new linguistic realities in both European and North American countries. Multilingualism in today’s modern societies requires new expertise, skills and leadership to understand and meet the challenges of linguistic and cultural diversity. This summer school will tackle multilingualism in an interdisciplinary fashion and examine the linguistic, pedagogical, sociological, political and cultural dimensions of multilingualism today. If you are interested in language in a crossdisciplinary fashion and in a global context – this summer school is what you are looking for.
