 Institution/Organization: The Columbia School Linguistic Society 
Department:  

Level: Open 

Duties: Research
 
Specialty Areas: General Linguistics 
 

Description:

For the coming 2022-2023 academic year the Columbia School Linguistic Society
(henceforth the Society) is considering fellowship proposals. Applicants do
not have to be members of the Society, but applicants for the research
fellowship are strongly encouraged to have a mentor who is a member of the
Society. Scholars who don’t yet have a Columbia School mentor are also invited
to apply.

The successful applicant for the fellowship (the fellow) will develop a
linguistic research project that addresses a grammatical, lexical, or
phonological problem of the fellow’s choice, under the guidance of a mentor
who is a member of the Society. The fellowship is intended for studies that
adhere to the general characteristics of a Diverian Columbia School analysis.
Accordingly, funded projects will address observable facts of distribution.
Grammatical analyses will include or be working toward an explicit hypothesis
about a signal, as well as explicitly formulated links between the
hypothesized meaning, the distribution of the hypothesized signal, and the
range of messages associated with the signal.  

The new fellow will receive a stipend for the period covering from September
1, 2022 to August 31, 2023. Awards start at US$5,000 and are calculated on the
basis of a 12-month calendar year.  

Assuming satisfactory progress in the judgment of the mentor and of the
Society’s Executive Committee, stipend payments will be made on a quarterly
basis by the Society. Each fellow is expected to submit a report, in the form
of either a proposal for continued funding, or a final report at the
conclusion of the fellowship year. Final reports should be submitted to the
Society’s program manager no later than December 1, 2023.  The fellowship
includes paid membership in the Society for 2022 and 2023.
