ILLS is a general linguistics conference open to all subfields and aimed primarily at providing graduate and undergraduate students a friendly venue to present their work. The ILLS annual conference is proud to be entirely student-organized and operated by the Linguistics Student Organization at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
ILLS is a great conference to network, get feedback and jumpstart your conference presentation journey! In the past, ILLS has held special sessions on a variety of themes including Minority Languages, Pragmatics, and Multilingualism. Since 2009 this conference has grown to include student presenters from across the country; in 2013, we reached a milestone of one hundred registered attendees.
