Sweden : Ph.D Studentships in Linguistics The Department of Linguistics at Stockholm University

Ph.D. Programs

The Department of Linguistics at Stockholm University invites applications for three Ph.D. Studentships in Linguistics with a specialization in General Linguistics and/or Phonetics, Ref.nr SU 617-2167-09, and a Ph.D. Studentship in Computational Linguistics, Ref.nr SU 617-2168-09.

Three Ph.D Studentships in Linguistics (Ref.nr SU 617-2167-09)

The Department of Linguistics at Stockholm University invites applications for three four-year studentships within its Ph.D. programme in Linguistics with a specialization in General Linguistics and/or Phonetics, with start date January 1, 2010. The thesis project should involve one or both of the profile areas of the department, namely, language typology (see http://www.ling.su.se/ASV/engelska/eng-text.html) or early language acquisition in children.

The deadline for applications is October 29th, 2009. Applications should be sent by ordinary mail to Stockholms universitet, Registrator/PA, 106 91 Stockholm, Sweden, and should include the following:

  1. CV with information about earlier studies, jobs and publications;
  2. a copy of written works that are referred to in the application;
  3. contact information for two reference persons;
  4. a sketch of up to 6,000 characters describing a possible thesis project.

Please indicate the reference number Ref.nr SU 617-2167-09 on your application! Further inquiries should be directed to Professor Maria Koptjevskaja Tamm (tamm@ling.su.se) for General Linguistics, and Professor Francisco Lacerda (frasse@ling.su.se) for Phonetics.

A Ph. D Studentship in Computational Linguistics (Ref.nr SU 617-2168-09)

The Department of Linguistics at Stockholm University invites applications for a four-year studentship within its Ph.D. programme in Computational Linguistics, with start date January 1, 2010.

We would especially welcome thesis projects with a potential for cross-fertilizing areas within the department and/or with partners in the Human Language Technology Center in the Stockholm Uppsala University Network. For example, the thesis project might involve one of the profile areas of the department, language typology (see http://www.ling.su.se/ASV/ engelska/eng-text.html) or early language acquisition in children. It might also relate to activities within the Userware Laboratory at the Swedish Institute of Computer Science (SICS), such as data-oriented models of semantics. Examples of other such cross-border areas are symbolic and statistical methods for parsing and computational linguistics for under-resourced languages.

The deadline for applications is October 29, 2009. Applications should be sent by ordinary mail to Stockholms universitet, Registrator/PA, 106 91 Stockholm, Sweden, and should include the following:

  1. CV with information about earlier studies, jobs and publications;
  2. a copy of written works that are referred to in the application;
  3. contact information for two reference persons;
  4. a sketch of up to 6,000 characters describing a possible thesis project.

Please indicate the reference number Ref.nr SU 617-2168-09 on your application! Further inquiries should be directed to Associate Professor Mats Wirén (mats.wiren@ling.su.se).
