Joint PhD in BCS/Linguistics at Rochester

[Jeff Runner]

Please forward to interested parties.  --Jeff

The department of Linguistics and the department of Brain & Cognitive 
Sciences at the University of Rochester invite applications from 
students interested in pursuing a joint PhD in Brain & Cognitive 
Sciences and Linguistics. The department of Linguistics 
(http://www.ling.rochester.edu/) combines strengths in formal 
linguistics--syntax, semantics, pragmatics, phonetics and 
phonology--with experimental and empirical methodologies. The 
department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences 
(http://www.bcs.rochester.edu/) combines strengths in language 
research--language processing, language acquisition, brain and 
language--with vision, and neuroscience, which includes computational 
neuroscience, learning and plasticity. The language researchers in 
these departments--along with those in Computer Science and 
Philosophy--constitute Rochester's Center for Language Sciences. This 
year we are particularly interested in applicants who want to 
investigate the formal syntactic and semantic properties of language 
structure using experimental and empirical techniques.

Students interested in the joint Brain & Cognitive 
Sciences/Linguistics PhD program should apply through the Brain & 
Cognitive Sciences department 
(http://www.bcs.rochester.edu/programs/graduate/how-to.html), by 
January 1, 2007. For further information, please go to the Center for 
Language Sciences web pages (http://www.bcs.rochester.edu/cls/) or 
contact Jeff Runner (runner at ling.rochester.edu).
