Description:

The Columbia School Linguistic Society invites applications for its
Post-doctoral Fellowship Program. The successful applicant will undertake a
linguistic research project from the perspective of Columbia School (CS)
linguistics.

The project will address a grammatical, lexical, or phonological problem, or a
problem in another area of linguistics, studied from the perspective of CS.
The Fellow must be a holder of the Ph.D. degree from a recognized university.
The Society will make every effort to make a Mentor available in cases where
this is appropriate.

The Fellow will receive a stipend of $65,000 for the period of Sept. 1, 2018
to Aug. 31, 2019. Stipend payments will be made on a quarterly basis. The
Fellowship includes Society membership.

The application consists of a statement of the problem, an account of existing
analyses under CS and other theoretical approaches, a brief review of the
relevant literature, and a description of the data to be used. 

The deadline for receipt of proposals is May 31, 2018. Proposals will be
reviewed by members of the Society’s Executive Committee, assisted by
additional reviewers. Applicants will be notified by the end of June 2018.
 
The Fellow will work full time on the Fellowship project during the period of
the Post-doctoral Fellowship and will produce analytical results accordingly.
The Fellow will participate on a regular basis in the bi-monthly CS Columbia
University Seminar and will be the lead presenter in one of these seminars in
the Fall and one in the Spring for reports of work-in-progress and
consultation with Seminar members. The Fellow is expected to be an active
supporter of the Society.

The Fellow will provide a year-end progress report detailing the state of the
analysis at the end of the Fellowship period, by Aug. 31, 2019.

After the Fellowship period ends, the Fellow will make every effort to publish
results in a recognized academic venue, acknowledging therein the support of
the Society.
