The successful candidate will join the project 'Boundary-related phenomena in speech' supported by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research. The project focuses on three broad research topics: the relation of phonetics-phonology to typology, socio-phonetics, and the relation between phonetics, cognition and speech motor control. (See project website URL above for details.) The exact topic of the applicant's PhD should be related to the PB1 project theme and worked out in cooperation with project researchers. The ideal candidate should be able to work both autonomously and in a team. Previous training in phonetics and phonology is required. Candidates who also have experience in experimental design and methodology, statistics and/or PRAAT are particularly invited to apply. Fluency in both German and English is not mandatory but a great advantage. Please send your letter of application, a current CV and if available, a research proposal by email to Marzena Zygis at the email address below.
