Description:

The Collaborative Research Center (CRC or in German SFB) 1412
'Register: Language Users' Knowledge of Situational-Functional
Variation' (http://sfb1412.hu-berlin.de) is a joint research project
of the Humboldt-University Berlin (HU) and the Leibniz-Centre General
Linguistics (ZAS). Nineteen sub-projects investigate intra-speaker
variation driven by situational and functional factors at all language
levels. They focus on the language user's register knowledge and its
relation to other types of linguistic knowledge. The CRC has been
funded by the German Research Council DFG since 01.01.2020 and is now
in its second funding phase.
Within the Integrated Graduate School, we offer fellowships for
Postgraduate Researchers who want to pursue or are already pursuing a
PhD relating to the research program of the CRC, or want to explore
topics relating to the CRC within their Ph.D. research. The Integrated
Graduate School serves the fellows, the PhD students working in the
CRC and early career postdocs in the CRC. The leaders of the CRC
Integrated Graduate School are Uli Sauerland (ZAS) and Richard
Waltereit (HU). The coordinator is Anne Temme (HU).
We offer scholarships for up to one year with an open start date in
2025 (1 April at the earliest). Remuneration is EUR 1,365 monthly,
tax-free, and the fellows must purchase health insurance. There is the
possibility of receiving a child allowance as well as additional funds
for soft skills workshops, research trips and experiments. The
fellowship can be used to carry out a self-contained research project
on the topic of the CRC. However, the prospective fellow must identify
a research project in the CRC that they primarily will connect to and
contact a PI of that project at the time of application. The fellows
are furthermore expected to participate in the training opportunities
of the Graduate School, in particular methods schools, mentoring, and
peer-to-peer networking events. Applicants not yet registered in a
Ph.D. program must have completed their M.A. by the planned start
date. Applicants should name other research qualifications relevant to
the planned research. The Integrated Graduate School aims to
strengthen the diversity of the CRC, so members of groups
traditionally underrepresented in German academic leadership positions
are especially encouraged to apply. Note that previous recipients of
CRC-1412 fellowships are not eligible for this stipend.

Application Deadline: 23-Feb-2025
