Centre for Language and Linguistic Studies (CLLS)

Founded in 2007, the Centre aims to promote interdisciplinary collaboration in linguistic research and teaching. Membership includes not just linguists within SECL but also researchers in classics, philosophy, computing, psychology and anthropology, reflecting the many and varied routes by which individuals come to a love of language and the various disciplines and sub-disciplines of linguistics. Kent provides academic progression in linguistics from undergraduate to graduate levels (taught and research MA, MPhil and PhD) with CLLS offering supervision and support in areas such as syntax, semantics and pragmatics, historical linguistics, sociolinguistics and stylistics. We run lectures, symposiums and workshops with experts from Kent and far beyond and have recently held the third of a series of biennial international conferences devoted to Interfaces in Language, with published proceedings.
