Subject:  Syntax: Doctoral position Utrecht Institute of Ling OTS, Netherlands

The Utrecht Institute of Linguistics OTS (http://www-uilots.let.uu.nl)
is a research institute of the Faculty of Arts of Utrecht
University. About a hundred researchers are involved of which 14 full
professors, about ten postdoctoral researchers and about 40 graduate
students. The goal of UiL OTS is to develop scientific expertise in
the area of language, speech and their use. The institute has
intensive relations with other scientific institutions in the
field. It is penholder of the National Graduate School in Linguistics
(LOT) and participates in the National research school of Logic
(OzsL). Within the research programme of UiL OTS we strive for
cooperation between the different main disciplines of linguistics and
related disciplines outside of linguistics proper. Specific domains of
interdisciplinary cooperation involve a wide range of topics, varying
from research into the structure of the grammatical system (where
generative and logico-semantic approaches join forces) to text
evaluation and text design; from the set-up of a systematic data-base
concerning the variation between languages, to the division of labor
between components that are involved in language and speech; from
language acquisition to language pathology.

UiL OTS is looking for an ambitious and enthusiastic candidate for a

              Graduate Position (AiO)
