10 Ph.D. Scholarships in Linguistics “Frequency effects in language”
The University of Freiburg, one of Germany’s nine Universities of Excellence, invites applications for 10 fully-funded Ph.D. scholarships in linguistics, beginning no earlier than October 1, 2009, and no later than March 1, 2010. Successful applicants will be members of the Research Training Group on “Frequency effects in language” (Graduiertenkolleg GRK 1624/1) funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).
Frequency is assumed to be a possible determinant in usage-based models of language change, language acquisition and language processing. In the Ph.D. projects this determinant will be investigated with a view both to its explanatory potential and its limitations. The envisaged research integrates descriptive-linguistic and cognitivist-psycholinguistic approaches and is empirically based on corpora for standard and non-standard varieties of European languages.
We offer a high-profile research environment, an interdisciplinary teaching programme, a full grant of 13,200 € per annum for a period of up to 3 years, and additional grants covering travel and research expenses.
For more information on the Research Training Group, envisaged Ph.D. projects, and application details, please visit our website: www.hpsl.uni-freiburg.de/grk-frequenz
Deadline for application: June 22, 2009
