CILT, Covent Garden, London, 11th December 2002

The Subject Centre for Languages, Linguistics and Area Studies is launching its new Area Studies Network which aims to bring together colleagues with an interest and expertise in the teaching of area-related subjects. Our experience over the past few years has shown that while Area Studies is a very diverse field encompassing a wide range of disciplines and types of programme there are occasions when it is of great benefit to network with colleagues across apparently discrete Areas e.g. on issues such as marketing & recruitment, - language learning, study abroad, multidisciplinarity, intercultural competence, key skills and employability. So if you would like to be involved in shaping our national support network for the learning and teaching of Area Studies we invite you to join the Network and/or attend the official launch and first annual meeting of the Network.

To join please send a message to llas@soton.ac.uk stating that you wish to join the Area Studies Network and giving your name and contact details. Alternatively complete the online registration form.
