OUR THANKS!

The 2003 conference is now over. We are grateful to all who participated and hope that you found it a very worthwhile experience in spite of the stressful time during which we convened.

See you in Portland for AAAL 2004!

Conference Profile

The AAAL annual conference has a national and international reputation as one of the most comprehensive and stimulating language conferences. The 2003 conference --"The Diversity of Applied Linguistics"-- will be held in Arlington, Virginia, across the Potomac River from Washington, DC. Here we will generate ideas, cross disciplinary boundaries, and disseminate research about issues and concerns in language policy, language acquisition, language pedagogy, translation and interpretation, and other areas of applied linguistics. The conference is known for its in-depth colloquia and paper sessions, topical and thought-provoking plenaries, and access to the latest publications via the book exhibit. It provides networking opportunities among established and new professionals. We look forward to your participation at AAAL 2003 in Arlington!

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING OPENING/CLOSING OF THE CONFERENCE: Registration for the 2003 AAAL Conference will begin Friday evening, March 21, and the conference itself will begin at 9 am on Saturday, March 22, 2003 with a full schedule of colloquia, individual papers and posters, in addition to a joint AAAL/ILTA session on the theme of “New Voices in Applied Linguistics and Language Testing.” Please note this change from previous years (in recent years, only the AAAL/ILTA session was scheduled for Saturday morning). The conference will end at 5:30 pm on Tuesday, March 25.
