Language And Communication Studies: University Of East Anglia - Uea Description
A page for those with a connection with Language and Communication Studies as part of Politics, Philosophy, and Language and Communication Studies (PPL) at UEA to share their interests and experiences around language, translation and intercultural communication. And a place to connect past, present and future students, and staff, of what was formerly LLT and EUR, at the University of East Anglia.
(For those not familiar with UEA's love of acronyms, that’s the School of Language, Linguistics & Translation Studies, and the School of Modern Languages and European Studies).
