Description:

The Hermann Paul School of Linguistics at the University of Basel
(Switzerland) and the Albert‐Ludwigs‐University of Freiburg (Germany)
is offering one scholarship for a PhD candidate in Basel, starting
between August 1 and September 1, 2023.

The graduate programme is internationally recognized and presents
inter‐university collaboration. As a PhD candidate, you will be part
of a lively and active research community located in the upper Rhine
region. Funding rates for the scholarships at the University of Basel
are in line with regulations of the Swiss National Science Foundation
(SNF).

Scholarships are granted for one year and may be subject to an
extension of up to two years with successful project development. The
PhD can be done in the following subjects: English Linguistics, French
Linguistics, General Linguistics, German Linguistics, Ibero-Romance
Linguistics, Italian Linguistics. The prerequisite for your
application is a good to excellent degree (MA or equivalent; minimum
MA mark: a 5 out of 6 in the Swiss system) in the field of language
sciences. As part of an international community your PhD project
should constructively add to the research environment. Scholarships
are awarded based on the quality of your outline: applications without
an outline will not be considered. Please inform yourself about the
research areas at the HPSL beforehand and get in touch with your
preferred first supervisor as soon as possible (the list of
supervisors is available at
https://www.hpsl-linguistics.org/people/faculty-and-researchers/).
Please note that PhD scholarships at the University of Basel must be
supervised by a first supervisor affiliated with the respective
university which grants the scholarship (Basel).

 - a letter of motivation

 - an informative outline of your research interests and PhD project

 - copies of educational certificates (please note: in Basel the
requirement for entering the PhD program is a "good" or "excellent"
degree)
 - a writing sample (seminar paper or master thesis on a linguistic
topic)
 - A document with two names of referees. Ideally, the referees should
be a professor, a junior professor or another member of university
staff with the right to supervise a PhD. In addition, ask one of the
referees to send a letter of recommendation that contains information
on your expertise and potential in linguistics directly to
philipp.dankel at unibas.ch by the application deadline.
