Description:

The University of Antwerp is a dynamic, forward-thinking university. We offer
an innovative academic education to more than 20,000 students, conduct

The Department of Linguistics in the Faculty of Arts is looking for a
full-time (100%) doctoral scholarship holder in the fields of grammar,
cross-linguistic semantics, and corpus linguistics.

Position: 
 - You will work actively on the preparation of a PhD thesis in Linguistics.
The project you are part of is entitled Predictable ways of being
unpredictable: Unconventional uses of verbal constructions, and uses data from
translation corpora to analyze how progressive aspect and GO- and
COME-constructions are exploited cross-linguistically to convey a sense of
unconventionality. A detailed description of the project can be found here:

 - You will publish scientific articles related to the research project, and
present your work at (inter)national conferences.
 - You will carry out a limited number of teaching and research support tasks
for the Department of Linguistics.

Profile: 
 - You hold a Master degree in the field of linguistics or you will have
obtained it by the time you start work.
 - You can demonstrate excellent study results.
 - Your teaching competences are in line with the University of Antwerp’s
educational vision.
 - Your research qualities are in line with the faculty and university
research policies.
 - You act with attention to quality, integrity, creativity and cooperation.
 - You are fluent in at least three languages, including English.
 - Experience in the domains of (translation) corpus linguistics, statistics
and/or grammaticalization studies is an asset.

What we offer: 
 - We offer a doctoral scholarship for a period of two years. Following a
positive evaluation, the scholarship can be renewed once for another two-year
period.
 - The planned start date is 1 October 2022, but a later starting date is
negotiable.
 - Your monthly scholarship amount is calculated according to the scholarship
amounts for doctoral scholarship holders on the pay scales for Contract
Research Staff (Dutch: Bijzonder Academisch Personeel, BAP).
 - You will receive ecocheques, internet-connectivity allowance and a bicycle
allowance or a full reimbursement of public transport costs for commuting.
 - You will do most of your work at the City Campus in a dynamic and
stimulating working environment.
