Description:

The Center of Excellence 'Cognitive Interaction Technology' (CITEC) at Bielefeld
University, Germany conducts interdisciplinary research into understanding the
functional processes of cognitive interaction with the goal of replicating them
in technical systems, including developing relevant evaluation methodologies and
toolkits. For more details, visit our website. 

Within CITEC, the newly established research group 'Language and Cognition'
conducts research on online language processing, also in interaction with other
cognitive sub-systems, and is leading a project that explores how humans
interact linguistically with one another and with virtual characters. 

In this context, we are inviting applications for the following positions, all
available immediately: 

2 Ph.D. scholarships (scholarship amount: 1.468 Euro) for the duration of 3
years. One applicant should have a degree in Cognitive Science, Psychology,
(Psycho-)linguistics, or a related discipline (ref: 2789). The second candidate
should have knowledge in Computer Science / Cognitive Science, have programming
skills, and be interested in engaging in cognitively motivated research (ref.
2525). 

All candidates should have excellent command of English. Candidates will be
affiliated with the CITEC graduate school, with a structured training program
that offers support for scientific career advancement and professional orientation. 

We welcome applications from severely handicapped people. We particularly
welcome applications from women. Given equal suitability, qualifications and
professional achievement women will be given preference, unless particular
circumstances pertaining to a male applicant predominate. 

Applicants should submit relevant documents (a cover letter indicating research
interests, curriculum vitae including list of publications, and pdfs of two
