1st Conference on Modern Applied Languages
3-5 May 2006

The Interuniversity Institute of Applied Languages (IULMA) of the University of Alicante and the University of Castellón was set up by Decree 55/2005 of the regional parliament of Valencia in 2005. The purpose of the Institute is to foment theoretical and practical specialization in the field of Modern Applied Languages, also known as Professional and Academic languages. This Institute comprises professionals and specialists in different fields of knowledge (Law, Economics, Pharmacy, Architecture, Medicine, etc.). In accordance with the above, the aim of the Institute is to address the immediate needs of society by:

1. carrying out interdisciplinary research in the fields of systematisation and dissemination of specialized knowledge;
2. promoting and organizing teaching activities;
3. disseminating research findings.

Therefore, the activities of the IULMA are carried out within the epistemological framework of interdisciplinarity, brought about by the information and knowledge society, so as to meet the scientific, business and social needs linked to the globalization of knowledge, science, technology and economy. This interdisciplinarity requires the creation of a new culture within the knowledge society and the promotion of collaboration among specialists and linguists, which means cooperation regarding the methods, aims and contents shared by two or more fields of knowledge in order to acquire a better understanding of reality.

The Ist Conference on Modern Applied Languages is intended as a means of introducing the Institute to society and the academic world.
