workshops and other scientific events every year.

scholars who could be asked to write a recommendation letter for you, any
further documentation (BA, MA and/or M.Phil theses, relevant articles or term
papers), as well as a motivation for your choice for Leiden University and LUCL

As part of the Vidi-project "A psycholinguistic model for phonological
development", funded by NWO (Principal investigator: Dr. Claartje (Clara)
Levelt), one paid PhD position (Dutch: promovendus/a) is available. Knowledge of
Dutch is a prerequisite, in order to be able to work with Dutch child language
data. To apply, send a one-page letter of motivation, CV, grade lists, full
contact details for three scholars who could be asked to write a recommendation
letter for you, and any further documentation (BA, MA and/or M.Phil theses,
relevant articles or term papers). An earlier appointment date is negotiable.

are appointed for a maximum of four years in order to complete a PhD
dissertation. Before-tax salaries range from EUR 1956 (monthly) in the first
year to EUR 2502 in the fourth. Candidates must hold a graduate degree (MA, M.Sc
