PhD Opportunities at the University of Reading 2017/18

The School of Psychology and Clinical Language Sciences at the University of
Reading is inviting applicants for PhD studentships to work on topics within
the Language, Development and Ageing Research Division. This research division
has academics working in psycholinguistics and neurolinguistics, language
development, bilingualism, and language disorders. We are looking for students
interested in pursuing PhD projects along these broad themes. A number of PhD
studentships are currently available, as described below.

The University of Reading is part of the ESRC funded SeNSS Doctoral Training
Partnership which will be awarding up to 35 studentships across the network
for the 2017/18 academic year on a +3 (PhD) or 1+3 (1-year Masters + PhD)
basis. These studentships are open to UK and EU residents on a fees + yearly
stipend basis (for UK residents) or a fees only basis (for EU residents).
Together with the Department of English Language & Applied Linguistics and the
Institute of Education, we are looking for PhD students to put forward within
the Linguistics, Psychology and Education pathways. 

In addition to the SeNNS Doctoral Training Partnership, the School of
Psychology and Clinical Language Sciences also offers funding via the Magdalen
Vernon Studentship. This year, one studentship will be available within the
Language, Development and Ageing Research Division that covers fees at the
UK/EU rate and a yearly stipend. International students are welcome to apply
but must be able to pay the difference between UK/EU and international fees. 

Finally, the University of Reading is also offering other studentships across
the university. This year, 10 Anniversary PhD Scholarships are available that
will cover fees and a yearly stipend for UK and EU residents. International
students are again welcome to apply, but must be able to cover the difference
between UK/EU and international fees. The university will also be offering 7
International Research Studentships this year that are open to international
students on a fees + stipend basis (1 award) or a fees only basis (6 awards).

Interested applicants should contact pcls.pgr at reading.ac.uk to signal their
intent to apply, and to gain further information regarding the application
procedure and specific deadline for each award (which will all generally be in
January/February 2017). Please also contact potential supervisors at Reading
to discuss your proposal and application.
