let.uu.nl>The Utrecht Institute of Linguistics OTS (http://www-uilots.let.uu.nl) is a research institute of the Faculty of Arts of Utrecht University. About a hundred researchers are involved of which 14 full professors, about ten postdoctoral researchers and about 40 graduate students. The goal of UiL OTS is to develop scientific expertise in the area of language, speech and their use. The institute has intensive relations with other scientific institutions in the field. It is penholder of the National Graduate School in Linguistics (LOT) and participates in the National research school of Logic (OzsL). Within the research programme of UiL OTS we strive for cooperation between the different main disciplines of linguistics and related disciplines outside of linguistics proper. Specific domains of interdisciplinary cooperation involve a wide range of topics, varying from research into the structure of the grammatical system (where generative and logico-semantic approaches join forces) to text evaluation and text design; from the set-up of a systematic data-base concerning the variation between languages, to the division of labor between components that are involved in language and speech; from language acquisition to language pathology. UiL OTS is looking for an ambitious and enthusiastic candidate for a Graduate Position (AiO) vacancy no. 68222 who will contribute to the NWO-funded Programme: Conflicts in Interpretation (http://baserv.uci.kun.nl/~hdehoop/cognitie.htm).
