Description:

Within the Research Training Group (“Graduiertenkolleg“) Dimensions of
Constructional Space located at Friedrich-Alexander Universität
Erlangen-Nürnberg there is an opening of a 65% position (TV-L E13, 3
years) for a doctoral candidate in Arabic and/or Semitic linguistics.

The focus of the work consists in analyzing pattern of valency as well
as phrasal verbs and preposition use in Arabic (and related Semitic
languages) in the framework of or at least with significant reference
to Construction Grammar. Successful candidates will have a solid
background in Modern Standard and Classical Arabic, with additional
insight into dialects, and preferably comparative knowledge of at
least another Semitic language such as Hebrew, and hold a master
degree in this field.

They will also have a good command of Theoretical Linguistics with a
focus on syntax, and a sense for computational methods. Knowledge of
interlinear glossing and transcription techniques is essential. During
his/her tenure the candidate will work closely with Prof. Lutz Edzard
and Prof. Thomas Herbst, as well as with the whole team of the
Research Training Group (both Principal Investigators and fellow
students) at FAU Erlangen.

Selection criteria:
 - MA in linguistics;
 - previous academic experience relevant to the project;
 - ability to work independently and as part of a team;
 - fluency in English

Application procedure:
Applications should be in English and should contain the following:
 - an academic CV;
 - a cover letter explaining how you meet the recruitment criteria,

or a review of the literature relevant to the project);
 - details (name, affiliation, email, and relationship to you) of 2-3
academic referees.

Application deadline: 1 December 2023

In its pursuit of academic excellence, FAU is committed to equality of
opportunity and to a proactive and inclusive approach, which supports
and encourages all under-represented groups, promotes an inclusive
culture and values diversity. Therefore we particularly encourage
