Description:

Applications are invited for PhD studentships in speech science at Newcastle
University. We welcome applicants who are interested in all aspects of speech
perception and production. Note that eligibility for these awards is
restricted to EU citizens. Studentships, to start in October 2020, will be
awarded via open competition for two doctoral training partnerships: 
- AHRC Northern Bridge Consortium, deadline Monday 13th January 2020. 
- ESRC Northern Ireland and North East Doctoral Training Partnership
(NINEDTP), deadline Friday 17th January 2020.

Please contact Ghada Khattab, Jalal Al-Tamimi or Laurence White if you are
interested in their broad research areas, as follows.

Ghada Khattab (ghada.khattab at newcastle.ac.uk):
PhD supervision interests: Monolingual and bilingual phonological acquisition,
accent/dialect acquisition, L2 phonology, and bilingualism and cognition. For
more details, see:
https://www.ncl.ac.uk/ecls/staff/profile/ghadakhattab.html#research 

Jalal Al-Tamimi (jalal.al-tamimi at newcastle.ac.uk):
PhD supervision interests: L1/L2 phonology, speech production and perception,
laboratory phonology, speech classification and recognition. For more details,
see:
https://www.ncl.ac.uk/ecls/staff/profile/jalalal-tamimi.html#research 

Laurence White (laurence.white at newcastle.ac.uk)
PhD supervision interests: Prosody in speech perception and production, first
and second language acquisition, developmental and acquired language
disorders. For more details, see:
https://www.ncl.ac.uk/ecls/staff/profile/laurencewhite.html#research

The AHRC Northern Bridge Consortium for Doctoral Training Partnership (NBCDTP)
offers tuition fees and maintenance funding for 42 months
(http://www.northernbridge.ac.uk/). Award-holders may extend their studentship
to pursue an approved research training programme or to undertake a placement
by a further 6 months, and successful applicants can apply for additional
funding during their studentship to support their research costs and
individual training needs. In addition to the standard PhD pathway, students
can apply under the collaborative doctoral pathway, through which applicants
develop a research project in collaboration with a partner organisation, and
spend a substantial portion of their doctoral study at the partner
organisation.

The ESRC Northern Ireland and North East Doctoral Training Partnership
(NINEDTP) offer +3, +3.5, 1+3 and, for Language Based Area Studies only, 2+3
awards (https://www.ninedtp.ac.uk/). The awards cover tuition fees and
maintenance for the duration of the degree. Award-holders may also apply for
research training support grants, internships and placements, and overseas
fieldwork and difficult language training, as well as overseas institutional
visits. However, these need to be laid out clearly at the application stage
and are considered on a case-by-case basis. In addition to the standard PhD
pathway, students can apply under the collaborative doctoral pathway, through
which applicants develop a research project in collaboration with a partner
organisation.
