Description:

Our Department offers 2 fully-funded scholarships (18.000 EUR each) for our 2-year Master's Course in Linguistics, starting December 15, 2015.

Applicants should send a full CV (preferably in Europass format) to the address below, and prepare for a Skype interview on December 9, 2015 (to be held between 10:00-12:00 CET).

Knowledge of the English language at Upper-intermediate level (B2) is required.
The application deadline is midnight on December 7, 2015.

The Master's programme in Linguistics aims to prepare graduates capable of making the most of metalinguistic analysis in teaching, in research and in its applications concerning socially relevant linguistic issues such as, for example: language pathologies, linguistic integration of immigrants, and analytical assessment of linguistic documents. These objectives will be achieved by way of: a) in-depth study of advanced and up-to-date linguistic theories and methodologies that are integrated with a general knowledge of epistemology and psychology, and b) the application of these theories to specific linguistic problems in Italy and other European countries. With this goal in mind, the postgraduate course guarantees the acquisition of at least one European language other than Italian at an upper-intermediate level.

Applications Deadline: 06-Dec-2015
