Fwd: Fully funded PhD Studentship (EU or Overseas) in Human-Animal Relations in the Circumpolar North

[Alexander King]

While the project below is not focused on language, I think that a student interested in a linguistic anthropological and/or discourse-based project would be competitive. Please circulate to potential applicants. The successful candidate will already hold a master's degree in anthropology and be fluent in both Russian (at least speaking/hearing) and English. An RCUK maintenance stipend is enough to live on in Aberdeen without borrowing. US citizens are able to borrow Federally guaranteed student loans for the study in the UK, which you may need if you like to fly home to family for every Christmas.
