With special guests from the Student Success Centre
The Centre for Advanced Research in Experimental and Applied Linguistics (ARiEAL) is housed within the Faculty of Humanities at McMaster University. ARiEAL is a research centre that brings together a community of researchers ranging from undergraduate trainees to established scholars, and enables the researchers to excel in their problem-driven language science research in fundamental, experimental, and applied linguistics.
You can learn more about our Vision, Values, Mission Statement, Research Areas, and Strategic Plan here.
We bring together a global community of researchers from the Humanities, Sciences, Engineering, and Health Sciences to explore language’s profound role in society, technology, and the human experience.
