Subject: Applied Linguistics; Discourse Analysis; Psycholinguistics; Sociolinguistics: Post Doc, MultiLing at University of Oslo, Norway

 
University or Organization: MultiLing at University of Oslo 
Department: Linguistics and Scandinavian Studies
Job Location: Oslo, Norway 
Web Address: https://www.hf.uio.no/multiling/english/
Job Title: Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in Multilingualism
Job Rank: Post Doc

Specialty Areas: Applied Linguistics; Discourse Analysis; Psycholinguistics; Sociolinguistics; Multilingualism; Bilingualism


Description:

1–2 two-year Postdoctoral Research Fellowships, financed by the Research
Council of Norway, are available at the Center for Multilingualism in Society
across the Lifespan (MultiLing) at the Department of Linguistics and
Scandinavian Studies, University of Oslo, starting April 2021.

MultiLing is a Center of Excellence funded by the Research Council of Norway
and opened in June 2013. MultiLing aims to generate scientific knowledge on
multilingualism across the lifespan, related to three themes: Theme 1
Multilingual competence, Theme 2 Multilingual practices, and Theme 3
Multilingualism, ideologies and language policies (for more information, see
http://www.hf.uio.no/multiling/). 

MultiLing seeks to recruit postdoctoral candidates with excellent research
qualifications who will work with MultiLing researchers collaborating on
research as addressed in MultiLing’s Research Strategy Plan (MRSP). Projects
aligned with MultiLing’s vision will be prioritized: “to contribute to how
society can deal with the current challenges of multilingualism through
increased scientific knowledge, and thus promote agency for individuals in
society, and a better quality of life, no matter what linguistic and social
background.”

The announced positions are devoted to studies of multilingualism within one
of the following areas:
- Minoritized languages and education
- Multilingualism, emotions and/or well-being

Education is used here in its broader sense as not only formal but also
informal language learning and development. Furthermore, projects that draw on
one or more of the following are encouraged: Globalization and North-South
perspectives, democracy and citizenship, embodiment/emotions,
computer-mediated communication, multilingualism in public spaces and/or
linguistic landscapes.

Applicants are expected to present an independent research project proposal,
and must articulate how the proposed project fits in MultiLing’s Research
Strategy Plan.

provided below.
