New Student Intake for the Hellenic American University PhD in Applied Linguistics

Effie Vlaxou — Tue, 22 Dec 2009 10:58:00 GMT

The Hellenic American University is accepting applications for the new cohort of students in its PhD program in Applied Linguistics. The degree program is a unique opportunity for students of Applied Linguistics and also professionals in Translation to pursue advanced study in their fields.

What is new about this Program?

The Program was developed by an international board of scholars in Applied Linguistics and Translation in cooperation with Prof. Dr Basil Hatim and is currently chaired by Prof. Dr Juliane House.
It combines residential courses conducted in intensive two-week residencies in Athens with extended on-line faculty contact in pre-scheduled sessions. In this way, the program is ideal for those who do not wish to stay in Athens for a long period.
It uniquely balances the study of theory with issues in professional practice.
PhD students become well-equipped practitioners with a solid theoretical background by grounding their expertise in contemporary theory.

Classes begin in February 2010

About Us

Effie Vlaxou — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 15:32:46 GMT

Mission

Founded in 1957, the Hellenic American Union is a public-service institution with an international focus and strong community commitment, dedicated to providing opportunities for a diverse range of audiences to encounter and benefit from innovative educational programs and cultural events. These programs are developed independently by the institution or in partnership with European and American educational and cultural organizations and aim to directly address emergent social or economic needs.

Orientation

The institution is a not-for-profit association with historic ties to the United States and program links to Western European, American and Balkan institutions but is wholly autonomous and self-financing. Its non-profit status enables the institution to use income earned in its fee-bearing activities to subsidize a large number of free community-service activities and resources, such as its program of cultural events, its Library, youth outreach programs and teacher training seminars.

The Hellenic American Union is committed to providing equal opportunities for all members of its public and prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, gender, sexual orientation, age, religion, national origin, physical disability, or veteran status in its student admissions, recruitment, employment, evaluation, and advancement policies.
Since its establishment, the Hellenic American Union has encouraged the creation of a multicultural atmosphere in all its activities, welcoming students and visitors from all over the world. It is estimated that to date 2,000,000 persons from approximately 75 countries have enjoyed its services.

Activities

The Hellenic American Union:

provides accessible, market-relevant, results-oriented training programs that lead to broadly recognized certification and draw upon innovative developments in educational technology and methodology. These programs range from basic skills training in foreign languages and computer literacy and vocational training programs to continuing professional education and higher education degree
provides executive and diplomatic training to Governments and Embassies from member states in the European Union, including Greece. Additionally, over the years, Hellenic American Union expert trainers have trained groups from a variety of professions to function effectively and communicate in a range of diplomatic and international relations settings
organizes high-visibility conferences and workshops that bring together policy-makers, technical experts, journalists and other professionals from Greece and abroad to address pressing social, economic and technological issues of current concern
forges partnerships with organizations, institutions and individuals in Europe, Asia and the United States to promote an awareness of innovative cultural and educational developments in these countries and foster an appreciation of cultural diversity and pluralism, and at the same time to promote similar developments in Greek society and culture abroad
develops, publishes and disseminates learning resources that complement classroom training, including educational textbooks, audio and video cassettes and CD-ROM material, or in some instances replace conventional classroom instruction, as is the case in the institution's distance education programs
develops, organizes and presents cultural programs in the visual and performing arts, as well as conferences, lecture series, artist workshops and demonstrations
serves as a responsible institutional citizen in Greek society, both at the local and national level, by making its resources and facilities available to community-groups, offering training programs that draw upon institutional expertise and enhance the professional effectiveness of public - and private - school teachers and by providing life-long learning opportunities for neighborhood residents and in particular young people.
