Vaxjo University invites applications for a four year
studentship for the PhD programme in English Linguistics
(start date: 1 September 2005). 
  
Applicants are expected to choose a topic for their PhD
theses within the department's focal areas of research.
These include aspects of meaning in the broad sense. For
more information see our web site:
http://www.hum.vxu.se/forskn/info/engelska.html

Applicants must have an undergraduate degree including an
equivalent of the Swedish 'magister' programme in English
Linguistics. This programme comprises two years of study
including the writing of two research papers. Knowledge of
Swedish is not a formal requirement but students are
strongly advised to acquire a working knowledge of Swedish
as soon as possible.  
  
During the period of the studentship, the student is a
regular employee of the University. The beginning salary is
SEK 17,800 a month. The first period of employment is for
one year. The employment contract can then be renewed for at
most two years at a time, up to a total of four years, or,
if the student accepts teaching or administrative duties at
the department (not exceeding 20 per cent of full time),
maximally five years.  
  
The deadline for applications is 2 March, 2005. Applications
should be sent by ordinary mail to Växjö universitet Sweden,
and should include the following:   
  
 * two copies of a certified CV with information about
earlier studies, jobs and  publications 
 * two copies of written works referred to in the application 
 * a short text about  'Why I want to study English
linguistics at Växjö University' and a  brief sketch of a
possible thesis project 
* two confidential reference letters
