Holland Institute of Generative Linguistics

The Holland Institute of Generative Linguistics (HIL) is a
research institute of Leiden University, the Universiteit van
Amsterdam and the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Research within
the institute focuses on generative linguistics.

HIL is part of the Dutch national graduate school in
linguistics, LOT. HIL is a training institute for linguistic
researchers. From 1 September, 1997, in this context there are
positions for

 	FOUR BURSARY STUDENTS
	(reference number: 7/039)

Two students will be placed at Leiden University and two at the
University of Amsterdam.

The students will receive a grant. Contingent on good progress,
the grant will be renewed for a maximum of four years. In
general, the grant will only be given to students who have
received their undergraduate degree no longer than five years
ago. For every bursary student a supervision and training
programme will be drawn up according to the HIL regulations. The
research project should result in a promotion at the
participating university.

Grant requests should be accompanied by a curriculum vitae, two
references, a copy of the doctoral diploma and grade-list, and,
if possible, other relevant written results of the candidate
(papers, articles, and the undergraduate thesis).

HIL graduate students are expected to carry out research
projects that fit in with the HIL research programme. To prepare
for an exploratory interview that HIL will invite short-list
candidates for, applicants are requested to include a short
description of the research topic they are interested in (max. 3
pages).

Students who have not yet obtained their undergraduate degree
should include a statement by their supervisor that they will
obtain this degree before 1 September, and a description of the
research topic of their undergraduate thesis (max. 3 pages).

Further information on the structure of the HIL training and
research programme can be obtained from:
