Overseas Institutional Visit (OIV) - Filipa Rychterova
Filipa is on the Applied Linguistics pathway at the University of Birmingham and undertook an OIV at Charles University, Prague, from 1/9/2025 to 6/10/2025.
During the OIV, Filipa assisted with two conferences in the host faculty. She greatly enjoyed learning about work outside her immediate field of sociolinguistics and getting a feel for the work culture at the faculty. She also visited the EEG lab and learned how to apply the EEG cap and electrodes.
Filipa now has a much clearer understanding of the formal aspects of conducting research in Czechia, as well as the appreciation of the value of informal learning. She is designing a research project with Jan Chromý which could turn into something really interesting and potentially very collaborative.
