2nd Departmental Research Day – LiLAIM
The Second Departmental Research Day is dedicated to the PhD candidates enrolled in the Doctoral Programme in Linguistic, Philological and Literary-Artistic Studies (cycles XXXIX, XL, and XLI).
This event provides a space for presenting, discussing, and sharing ongoing research projects, with special focus on methodologies used, progress to date, challenges encountered, and future research perspectives. The PhD candidates of the XLI cycle, who have recently joined, will participate as auditors, marking the beginning of their integration into the Department’s academic community.
For cycles XXXIX and XL, this activity serves as the biannual progress review.
