[Beeman, William]

Greetings,

 

I might well be able to help you, but the best person will be Niloofar
Haeri. She is Iranian-American, but her research is on Moroccan Arabic,
which is of course, close to Algerian Arabic. She is in the Anthropology
Department at The Johns Hopkins University.

 

Best,

 

Bill Beeman

	Forwarded from Linguist-List,
	
	Sociolinguistics: PhD Student, Rice University, Houston, USA
	Date: 13-Dec-2004
	From: Claire Bowern 
	http://www.linguistics.rice.edu/programs.cfm?doc_id=131
	
	Rice University Job Rank: PhD
	
	On December 1, 2004, competition opened for academic year
2005-2006
	admissions and fellowships for the Rice University Ph.D. program
in
	Linguistics.
	
	The doctoral program at Rice focuses on the usage-based study of
human
	language, with primary attention to the relation of form and
function, and
	the cognitive, interactional, and sociocultural situation of
language
	users. The overriding theoretical orientation is functional
linguistics,
	with an eclectic application of theoretical models. Language
areas
	particularly well represented in faculty expertise are
Austronesian
	languages, A! ustralian Aboriginal languages, Germanic and
Slavic languages,
	Japanese, and African languages. Other languages recently
studied in field
	methods include languages of North and South America and of
South Asia.
	
	ADMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS
	
	Candidates for admission must submit an application form and
university
	transcripts before February 1. Also required are scores from the
Graduate
	Record Examination, and, for non-native speakers of English,
scores for
	the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). These
examinations
	should be taken in time for the scores to be made available by
early
	February 2005. In many countries the latest date for taking the
GRE before
	our deadline is Dec. 11. See the GRE and TOEFL websites to find
the
	earliest date to take the test in your region.
	
	The candidate should also arrange for three letters of
recommendation
	from relevant faculty who know the candidate's work, preferably
in
	Linguistics, to be sent to! the Linguistics Dept. at the address
given. A
	course paper or publication (written in English) in linguistics
or related
	subject should be supplied if possible.
	
	FINANCIAL AID
	
	Admission and financial awards are competitive. Graduate
fellowship
	packages are awarded to outstanding candidates for admission to
the
	doctoral program. Awards generally include Rice tuition and a
cash stipend
	for living expenses. Fellowships are normally available for 4 or
5 years
	of support depending on prior background. In general, the
department
	admits applicants whom it can offer a financial package.
	
	INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS - LETTERS OF INTENT
	
	Applications are welcome from both U.S.-based and international
students.
	Because international qualifications sometimes require extra
time to
	consider, foreign students are strongly encouraged to write a
letter of
	intention to apply, which briefly outlines their qualifications
and
	indicates the lingui! sts from whom they intend to request
letters of
	recommendation. Letters of intention to apply should be sent as
soon as
	possible in Fall 2004 for the current application cycle. Letters
of intent
	received by December 15 will receive fullest consideration and
will help
	us to identify the top candidates from outside the U.S. The
letter should
	be addressed to the department. Students from countries with
currency
	problems can request a waiver of the application fee and such
requests
	will be considered on the basis of need.
	
	CURRENT STUDENTS, PROGRAM LENGTH
	
	In 2004, four entering doctoral students were awarded full
fellowships
	plus tuition waivers. Currently all students within the first
five years
	of their progress to degree are financially supported. Current
doctoral
	students (16 at present) come from the U.S., Germany, Israel,
Korea,
	Russia, Brazil, Taiwan R.O.C., Hungary, and Mexico. Normative
time to
	degree is 3-4 years with masters de! gree, 4-5 years without.
Usual time of
	completion is 5 years.
	
	APPLICATION AND CONTACT INFORMATION.
	
	Application can be made online from our website. Scroll down to
near the
	bottom of the page, where there is a link to the on-line
application form.
