Description:

A two-year Postdoctoral Research Fellowship is available at the Center for
Multilingualism in Society across the Lifespan (MultiLing) at the Department
of Linguistics and Scandinavian Studies, University of Oslo, starting January
2020. 

MultiLing seeks to recruit a postdoctoral candidate with excellent research
qualifications who will work with MultiLing researchers on research Theme 2
“Multilingual language practices”, specifically related to linguistic
practices among youth in multilingual urban spaces in Norway regarding the
role of language in processes of social differentiation. Applicants are
expected to present an independent research project proposal and articulate
how the proposed project fits in MultiLing’s Research Strategy Plan. MultiLing
engages in innovative methodologies and scrutinizes critical concepts and
theoretical approaches in studying multilingualism, as emphasized in the
Research Strategy Plan, and the successful candidate is expected to further
develop Citizen Sociolinguistics, that is, engaging citizens in doing
sociolinguistic research.

The candidate should have a PhD degree or equivalent in Linguistics,
Scandinavian languages, Second Language Acquisition, Rhetoric and
Communication, Linguistic anthropology or some other relevant discipline
related to MultiLing’s work.

The doctoral dissertation must have been submitted for evaluation before the
application deadline.
