Description:

The Department of Romance Languages and Literatures, Faculty of Modern
Languages, at Goethe University Frankfurt invites applications for the
position of a : Doctoral Researcher (E13 TV-GU, 65% part time). funded for 3
years. The salary grade is based on the job characteristics of the collective

experiments comparing the processing profiles of Spanish heritage speakers
(living in Germany) with those of Spanish speakers living in Argentina and in
Spain. Our department features a lively research environment, which includes a
graduate school and faculty working on language acquisition, processing and
theoretical linguistics. We also have experimental facilities including remote
eye-trackers and reaction-time computers.

Applicants should:
 - have an excellent command of Spanish
 - be interested in psycholinguistics and bilingualism
 - hold an M.A. in linguistics, or equivalent (e.g., “licenciatura” in
Spanish-speaking countries), with the degree completed by April 15, 2022.

research are desirable.

Application documents:
