SELCS Annual Conference

The SELCS Annual Conference is a valuable event to pause, reflect, and engage with the key issues shaping education, language, and lifelong learning. This event marks an exciting new chapter, bringing together two long-standing and valued initiatives: the Warwick International Conference in Applied Linguistics (WICAL) and the Education Studies Postgraduate Research (PGR) Conference.

Led by postgraduate researchers from across Education Studies, Applied Linguistics, and the Centre for Lifelong Learning, the conference reflects a collaborative and interdisciplinary approach. By bringing these communities together, the joint format creates richer opportunities for dialogue, fosters cross-disciplinary connections, and broadens perspectives on shared research concerns. It offers a space for postgraduate researchers, early career researchers, and scholars to present their work, exchange ideas, and engage in thoughtful and critical discussion within a diverse and inclusive academic community.

The SELCS Annual Conference welcomes students at all levels from institutions worldwide, alongside early career researchers and scholars across its interdisciplinary fields. Whether presenting for the first time or developing your research profile, the conference provides a supportive and inclusive space to share ideas and connect with like-minded researchers.
