AMLUK

Alliance of Modern Languages, Area Studies and Linguistics Subject Associations UK

AMLUK was set up in 2015 as an informal grouping of Heads of Modern Languages, Area Studies and Linguistics subject associations to share information and strategies. It has held its annual meetings at ILCS since February 2015.

In April 2020 AMLUK was established as a Special Interest Group of the University Council of Modern Languages (UCML). The Group’s aim is to bring together these disciplinary fields more formally to explore common ground, with a particular focus on research strategy, identity and delivery.

A primary function of this group is to keep channels of communication open across the three disciplinary fields, developing the capacity to participate in research strategy discussions across the UK and Ireland in a coherent way. The group is administered by the Institute of Languages, Cultures and Societies and chaired by the ILCS Director with support from UCML.
