Description:

The Hispanic Linguistics track in Spanish and Portuguese Studies at
the University of Massachusetts Amherst invites applications to the
Ph.D. program for students starting their studies in the Fall Semester
2025.

Our PhD program in Hispanic Linguistics allows students to focus on
applied linguistics, indigenous languages of Latin America, language
acquisition, phonetics and phonology, formal semantics and pragmatics,
sociolinguistics and dialectology, and syntax. Please visit
https://www.umass.edu/spanish-portuguese/academics/graduate-programs
for more details regarding the Ph.D program. If an applicant knows
faculty members with whom they might work, the faculty member would be
happy to answer any questions that prospective students may have.
Please contact them individually regarding their research or classes.

Doctoral students receive four years of funding support if they hold
an M.A. at the time when they enter the program, and five years if
they enter the program without an M.A. Extensions depend upon
availability. Doctoral students receive a full tuition waiver and a
stipend while they work as Teaching Associates, teaching one course
per semester in Spanish. More information regarding funding can also
