In March 2011 the vice-chancellor identified new "Leading Research Areas" at Stockholm University and included Romance Linguistics, within the Faculty of the Humanities, as one of them. After an international evaluation in 2014, it was decided to keep Romance Linguistics as a leading area, which also led to an increase of funding. Romance Linguistics consists of French, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese, and is a vigorous research environment. The research area covers the following specializations: discourse and interaction linguistics, historical linguistics and editorial philology, sociolinguistics with a focus on variation and language contact, second language acquisition and learning, syntax and semantics, translation studies and contrastive linguistics. For further details, see our homepage Romance Linguistics.
