ACLC lectures

Throughout your studies, you are encouraged to attend the biweekly ACLC lectures, where you will become acquainted with research conducted by ACLC members and will have the opportunity to listen to national and international guest speakers. After each lecture, you will have the possibility to socialise with your peers and the guest speakers.

We can’t make decisions without arguing internally with ourselves because we have language to organise our thoughts, weigh them, and sometimes impact our interlocutors. If in reading this you can’t stop asking yourself how this came about, how it works, and what it may teach us about our humanity, then come join our very selective programme, embedded in the ACLC. Prof. Enoch Aboh

Would you like to spend a semester abroad?

This is possible in the third or fourth semester of the programme. In the past, students spent a semester at such places as the University of Edinburgh or at Charles University Prague, or used this time to do an internship abroad.
