The research project "Word Formation as a Structuring Device of the English
and Italian Lexicons: A Large-Scale Exploration" is funded by the Swiss
National Science Foundation (SNSF). It is a two-year project starting on

project is Dr. Pius ten Hacken.

For the English lexicon branch we are looking for two postgraduate research

near-native fluency in English, and computer literacy. A working knowledge
of German and/or Italian would be an advantage, as well as familiarity with
computational linguistics. Working place: Basel. Starting date: July 1st,

assistants with a degree in Italian or general linguistics, native or
near-native fluency in Italian, a working knowledge of English, and

Starting date: July 1st, 2000.

All positions are full-time, with salary in accordance with the SNSF-scale

will be given the opportunity to use part of their time for their own
research leading to a Ph.D. The universities aim to increase the proportion
of women in academic positions and would therefore welcome applications
from suitibly qualified women.
