Language Science Day

Language Science Day (LSD) is the flagship event of the year’s language science activities and gives students and faculty an opportunity to showcase ongoing projects, facilitate networking among participants, and improves awareness of research and training opportunities at the University of Maryland. Each year, the event brings together over 200 language science researchers from 17 departments and UMD-affiliated institutions in order to exchange ideas and interact and communicate with each other in a series of social events.
