Introduction
NordLing is a Balto-Scandinavian network of graduate schools in
language and linguistic studies. The network organises joint courses,
seminars, summer schools, conferences, and other events aimed at
doctoral students in the participating institutions.
The network provides an indispensable forum for the exchange of ideas
and good practices both in research and research training. The network
brings together the many already existing Nordic and Baltic institutions
working within the field of language studies and doctoral training into
an operational network, which enables the organisation of top-quality joint courses
and seminars. The network also encourages individual-level networking
between doctoral students and scholars working in the Nordic and Baltic
countries, and greatly promotes their international mobility within the
area.
NordLing is funded by a three-year grant from NordForsk,
starting from 1 October, 2006.
