STUDENTSHIPS IN LINGUISTICS, DISCOURSE & COMMUNICATION AT KING'S COLLEGE LONDON 2011

A number of post-graduate studentships are available at King's College London, affiliated to the Centre for Language Discourse & Communication.  The Centre is ESRC-recognised for its research training, it works across departments, and it offers supervision in text, discourse & narrative analysis, social pragmatics, linguistic ethnography, sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, applied, educational, historical, cognitive and corpus linguistics.

Applicants should have very good qualifications and a clear research idea, and to apply, there are a number of steps to follow:

1) Identify a potential supervisor, referring to our webpages at www.kcl.ac.uk/ldc <http://www.kcl.ac.uk/ldc> .

2) Email the person you have identified, providing information about your background, qualifications and a draft research proposal (if you are unsure of who to contact, please send the material to ldc at kcl.ac.uk or ben.rampton at kcl.ac.uk (inserting 'Studentships' in the Subject)).

3) If your potential supervisor encourages you, choose which studentship(s) you want to apply for, consulting the information at www.kcl.ac.uk/graduate/funding/database/ <http://www.kcl.ac.uk/graduate/funding/database/>  and checking your eligibility very carefully.   The possibilities include:

* Arts & Humanities Research Council (AHRC) Studentship (deadline: 1 February 2011)  - http://www.kcl.ac.uk/study/pg/funding/sources/ahrc.aspx.  This covers research on linguistic structure, history, theory and description, including stylistics, discourse analysis, pragmatics, corpus studies, translation, and some areas of applied linguistics.

* Graduate School Studentships (deadline: 1 February 2011) http://www.kcl.ac.uk/study/pg/funding/sources/gradsch.aspx.  These covers all areas of linguistics supervised at King's.

4)  Start working on the studentship application forms well before the deadline. Your potential supervisor can discuss your proposal with you, but she/he will need the time to do so.  You will also need to contact your referees to ensure that you have their references in time.
