The successful applicant should have a background in
Ethnomethodology/Conversation Analysis, Interactive Sociolinguistics or

CALPIU, such as Polish or Mandarin.
The Ph.D. scholarship will be available from the 1st of August, 2009.
The scholarship will last for a period of three years. The successful applicant

of the Department's Master's programmes and disseminating research to a broad
audience etc.). Danish candidates should also expect, preferably, to carry out
research abroad for at least six months. The Department's research programme
cooperates with GradEast ("Forskerskole Øst"), and the Ph.D. candidate will be
expected to enrol in GradEast.
The salary and other terms of employment are based on the general agreement
between the Ministry of Finance and the Danish Confederation of Professional
Associations (AC). All qualified candidates are urged to apply regardless of
age, gender, religion or ethnic background.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such
can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non
Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be
offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers
only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any
gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting
your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills
in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure
that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny.
Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.
