Description:

Ph.D. Research Studentship in the Surrey Morphology (for three years, subject to
satisfactory progress)

£13,290 maintenance grant per annum (funded by the European Research Council)

Applications are invited for a Research Studentship leading to a Ph.D. in the
Surrey Morphology Group, for three years, starting either July 1 2009 or October
1 2009. This post is part of a larger European Research Council-funded project
on morphological complexity (the MORPHOLOGY project) awarded to Professor
Greville Corbett, Dr Matthew Baerman and Dr Dunstan Brown.

The MORPHOLOGY project investigates the contribution of inflectional morphology
to linguistic complexity, and in particular the role of autonomous
morphological systems, such as inflection classes and many-to-one
correspondences, which constitute a level of structure distinct from the
functional categories they express. The current position is the first of two
Ph.D. studentships on the project and it is dedicated to the study of
inflectional classes.

The studentship includes a maintenance grant of £13,290 per annum. Applicants
are expected to have a good first degree and a grounding in linguistics. The
post will be particularly appealing to applicants interested any of the
following areas: morphology; syntax; typology; computational linguistics. The
successful applicant will pursue a specific agreed topic related to inflectional
classes within the overall project, and will benefit from being part of a larger
team, within a research group. The ability to work collaboratively and to meet
deadlines is essential.

Details of the Surrey Morphology Group can be found at the website provided above.

Informal enquiries may be made to Dr Matthew Baerman (see contact information
below).

To apply, please send: a covering letter explaining how you meet the criteria
specified on the 'further intormation sheet'; one page outlining why you are
interested in morphological complexity; and a CV including the names of two
referees. These should be sent to Melanie Mullally (address provided below) or
emailed to l.mack@surrey.ac.uk. Please include the reference MORPHOLOGY/PhD in
your application and supply your postal address. The closing date for
applications is May 13 2009. Interviews are expected to be held on June 4 2009.

The University is committed to an Equal Opportunities Policy.
