Yerevan Academy for Linguistics & Philosophy

The Yerevan Academy for Linguistics and Philosophy (YALP) is an annual intensive summer program in linguistics and philosophy. YALP started out in 2017 and brings each year over 50 undergraduate and graduate students together. It hosts students from Armenia and other countries in the region (broadly construed).   

The purpose of the academy is to provide an opportunity for students to develop their knowledge and skills, possibly with a view toward applying to doctoral programs in philosophy or linguistics.

Organized by Daniel Altshuler, Arshak Balayan and Susanna Melkonian-Altshuler.

Annual colloquium in linguistics and philosophy at the University of Oxford. Organized by Daniel Altshuler and Ofra Magidor, with generous support from the Faculty of Linguistics, Philology and Phonetics and the Faculty of Philosophy.
