The Department of Linguistics at SOAS is pleased to announce the
availability of several (partial or full) scholarships for students
wishing to undertake PhD research with us.

SOAS Linguistics Department is the oldest linguistics department in
the UK, founded in 1932. We have a strong profile in theoretical,
descriptive, comparative and applied linguistics (including language
pedagogy, sociolinguistics, and translation) and world-leading
expertise in the study of the languages of Africa and Asia. We are
home to the Hans Rausing Endangered Languages Project and offer a very
strong research environment in language documentation of endangered
languages.
