Students who are interested in participating to the upcoming IWL sessions should submit a letter of interest to the Executive Officer and the Deputy Executive Officer by early December.
"Participating in the IWL was a great opportunity to meet graduate students and scholars from all over the world. The seminars really benefited from the diverse backgrounds of the participants, and Lisbon was a perfect location for organizing get togethers outside the university. Over the years, I have stayed in touch with many of the people I met there, and was happy to see some of them again at several international conferences." — Stefania Porcelli, IWL 2015 in Lisbon
"In a sweltering Tokyo summer, a host of engaging seminars and talks ranged from the Greco-Roman tradition to present-day science fiction made in China. Top-class professors and a young scholars animated a four-week experiece that I cannot recommend enough. " — Alberto Gelmi, IWL 2018 in Tokyo
