The Boston University Conference on Language Development (BUCLD) will be held at Boston University each November from 2017 through 2021. BUCLD is an internationally recognized meeting of researchers in language acquisition and development, including first and second language acquisition, language disorders, bilingualism, and literacy development. Now in its forty-second year, BUCLD promotes the progress of science by providing a major venue for dissemination of scholarly findings, for initiation and development of collaborations, and for professional networking. The conference consists of approximately 190 presentations selected through peer review, as well as invited keynote and plenary speakers, two symposia on topics of current interest, a research funding workshop, a professionalization workshop for students and postdoctoral scholars, and a publisher exhibit. Attendees number over 500 researchers from around the world, from undergraduates up through senior faculty. Full ASL interpreting coverage is provided throughout the conference, and conference proceedings are published soon after the conference. Since 1976, the faculty and students of Boston University have organized and run the conference; Dr. Charles Chang, Dr. Sudha Arunachalam, and Dr. Paul Hagstrom lead the team of organizers for the 2017 conference. Funding from the National Science Foundation will support education and enhance accessibility, diversity, and inclusion at BUCLD by subsidizing student travel, including that of underrepresented minorities, and the time of the student organizers of the conference, graduate students in Linguistics and allied fields. Support for student travel will allow student contributions, regularly among the highest-rated abstract submissions, to be presented at the conference without undue hardship and will increase the exposure of students to the top research and researchers in the field in a friendly and interactive environment. Furthermore, support for student organizers will allow BUCLD to continue to play an important role in training students as future professionals, including undergraduates and women.

波士顿大学语言发展会议 (BUCLD) 将于 2017 年至 2021 年每年 11 月在波士顿大学举行。BUCLD 是国际公认的语言习得和发展研究人员会议，包括第一和第二语言习得、语言障碍、双语和读写能力发展。现在已经是第四十二年了，北京大学图书馆为传播学术成果、启动和发展合作以及建立专业网络提供了一个主要场所，促进了科学进步。会议包括约 190 个通过同行评审选出的演讲，以及受邀的主旨演讲和全体演讲嘉宾、两场有关当前感兴趣主题的研讨会、一个研究资助研讨会、一个针对学生和博士后学者的专业化研讨会以及一个出版商展览。与会者有来自世界各地的 500 多名研究人员，从本科生到高级教师。整个会议期间提供完整的美国手语口译报道，会议记录将在会议结束后立即出版。自1976年起，波士顿大学的师生就组织并主办了该会议； Charles Chang 博士、Sudha Arunachalam 博士和 Paul Hagstrom 博士领导了 2017 年会议的组织者团队。 国家科学基金会的资金将通过补贴学生旅行（包括代表性不足的少数族裔的旅行）以及会议学生组织者、语言学及相关领域的研究生的时间来支持教育并提高 BUCLD 的可及性、多样性和包容性。对学生旅行的支持将使学生的贡献（通常是评分最高的摘要提交）能够在会议上毫无困难地展示，并将增加学生在友好和互动的环境中接触该领域顶尖研究和研究人员的机会。此外，对学生组织者的支持将使北京大学城市学院能够继续在培养学生成为未来的专业人士（包括本科生和女性）方面发挥重要作用。
