Sego Graduate Student Language & Culture Conference
Global Perspectives in Academia: Strengthening Connections, Enriching Discourse
April 12, 2024 @ 11 AM
On April 12, 2024, the graduate students from the University of Utah's Department of World Languages and Cultures are holding our conference Global Perspectives in Academia: Strengthening Connections, Enriching Discourse which is centered around the exploration of linguistics and cross-cultural perspectives within academia. With higher education spaces increasingly reflecting diversity, there is a growing imperative to generate, conceptualize, and examine intercultural interactions within academic realms spanning various disciplines. In the context of globalization and the expanding of cultural pathways, academia is evolving towards pedagogical methodologies that foster inclusive discussions and practical solutions to contemporary challenges. By embracing diverse voices, we aim to cultivate a broader understanding and facilitate interdisciplinary dialogues.
RSVP here so we have an accurate count for lunch. Please direct any questions to sego@utah.edu.
