a relevant area.

We expect the willingness to work in an international interdisciplinary research
environment. The PhD candidates will receive a starting salary of 2042 Euro
gross per month in the first year. The salary in the last year is 2612 Euro. The
postdoctoral researcher will receive a starting salary ranging from 2977 to 3195
Euro gross per month, depending on experience.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These

(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact 
your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple 
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without 
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company 
operates such a program.
