Fully-funded PhD studentships -- Linguistics, Bangor University

[Vyv Evans]

The School of Linguistics at Bangor University seeks applications from 
well-qualified students to undertake a fully-funded PhD by research 
(three such studentships are available).  Applicants must apply no later 
than March 23rd 2012 to be considered for the studentship competition.  
The studentships provide full-funding (including tuition waiver and 
stipend) for three years.  Each holder of a PhD studentship receives an 
annual maintenance grant of £13,000, and also receives an annual 
research allowance of up to £1,500 (for approved expenditure). 
Successful studentship applicants will be expected to supply around 100 
hours per year of teaching/research assistance focused on a supervisor / 
research team as part of their development as an academic of the 
future.  The School of Linguistics seeks specific research proposals in 
some aspect of either Cognitive Linguistics, or Bilingualism, the two 
research priorities of the department.

Prospective applicants may contact the Linguistics Director of 
Postgraduate Studies, Dr. Eirini Sanoudaki (e.sanoudaki at bangor.ac.uk) 
for informal enquiries.
