================================================================  

The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to use
non-discriminatory standards in hiring policy. In particular we urge
that employers do not discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity,
nationality, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we
have no means of enforcing these standards.

Job seekers should pay special attention to language in ads regarding
employment requirements and are encouraged to consult our international
employment page http://linguistlist.org/jobs/jobnet.html. This page has been set 
up so that people can report on the employment standards of various countries.

Description:

Applications are invited for one predoctoral research position (salary scale BAT

Project description: 
The project investigates phenomena of morphophonological variation at word
edges. It will focus on processes of word-final vowel deletion and on allomorphy
of function words.  Current theories of the interface between phonology,
morphology and syntax serve as theoretical background. The languages under
investigation are Italian, Piemontese and Catalan.
