HUNTAHAN:
The Southern Luzon State University Research Seminar Series
Consistent with its mandate to increase and enhance the scope, prominence, and impact of the University’s research initiatives, the Office of Research Services is hosting a year-long Research Seminar Series through which to promote cross-institutional research-related conversations across disciplines.
Dubbed “Huntahan: The Southern Luzon State University International Research Seminar Series”, the seminar series shall serve as a venue for disseminating research findings and sharing best research practices by in-house and invited international experts in particular fields of study.
Huntahan is a Tagalog term that can mean two things: (1) a meeting place of sorts, and (2) a conversation (Komisyon ng Wikang Filipino, 2021). Encapsulating the dual meaning of the term, the research seminar series is intended to be a channel and at the same time the actual conversation through which to discuss cutting-edge research by in-house experts and invited international scholars.
The Office of Research Services (ORS), in collaboration with SLSU the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS) Inter-Actions International Webinar Series and the Migration Linguistics Unit of Tokyo University of Foreign Studies (TUFS), shall hold the 2nd session of the Huntahan: The SLSU's International Research Seminar Series.
On April 25-26, 2024, a Masterclass in Researching Language in Society will be held in a hybrid setup as part of the Huntahan. The ORS invited Dr. Shirley N. Dita, Associate Professor & Chair of the Department of English and Applied Linguistics of De La Salle University, and Dr. Ariane M. Borlongan, Associate Professor of Sociolinguistics & Founder and Head of the Migration Linguistics Unit of TUFS, to elaborate on the said topic.
The participants from Quezon Province and the adjacent provinces are invited to join the session physically while those outside CALABARZON and the Philippines will receive a ZOOM link a day before the event. Note that only the registered participants who completed the two-day workshop shall receive certificates.
