Linguistic Colloquia
At the University of Zurich, master's students, doctoral students and postdocs in the field of linguistics find numerous opportunities for mutual exchange. Insights can be shared, projects can be reviewed and discussed with others in topic-specific colloquia and reading groups taking place on a regular basis. Previously acquired knowledge can be deepened and methods can be consolidated in focus-specific workshops.
The LiZZ News provide an overview of presentations, guest lectures and other relevant linguistic events on a weekly basis. Here you find a selection of linguistic and language science related event series at UZH in the fall semester 2026:
