Plenary speakers

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the Fifth International Conference on Third Language Acquisition and Multilingualism to be held from 3-5 September 2007.

This is an exciting time in research into multilingualism as global interest in multilingualism is growing. I hope you will be able to come to Stirling – a historic city with a modern university on a beautiful campus - to share your latest research and hear about others’. A rich and interesting programme is being prepared for you. I hope you will enjoy the conference and your visit to Scotland.

This is the first time the conference is to be held in the UK. Previous conferences have been held in Innsbruck in Austria (1999), Leeuwarden-Ljouwert in The Netherlands (2001), Tralee in the Republic of Ireland (2003), and Fribourg/Freiburg and Biel/Bienne in Switzerland (2005).

I look forward to welcoming you to Stirling!
