语言学哲学博士

我们为学生提供三年监督式研究路线，他们对该领域的现有研究具有扎实的知识，并对研究方法有很好的了解。我们提供描述性和理论性语音，语法，语义和形态学方面的博士生指导，尤其着重于跨语言变异和语法不同领域之间的接口。我们部门的研究涵盖了世界范围内的多种语言，包括来自非洲，拉丁美洲，中东和欧洲的语言。我们对基于现场研究和面向社区的研究不足的语言特别感兴趣，并将经验数据与理论概括联系起来。<br>在我们的四年路线（综合“新路线”博士）上，您的第一年是预备的MRes年，因此您需要学习六个讲授的模块并撰写经过评估的MRe
We offer a three-year supervised research route for students with a solid knowledge of existing research in the field and a good understanding of research methods.<br><br>We offer PhD supervision in descriptive and theoretical phonology, syntax, semantics, and morphology, with a particular emphasis on cross-linguistic variation and interfaces between different areas of grammar. Research in our department has covered a wide range of the world's languages, including languages from Africa, Latin America, the Middle East and Europe. We are especially interested in fieldwork-based and community-oriented work on understudied languages and linking empirical data to theoretical generalisations.<br><br>We are 1st in UK for research impact in modern languages and linguistics (Grade Point Average, Research Excellence Framework 2021).<br>Our students are taught, supported and supervised by staff with an international reputation for being at the forefront of research in their areas of expertise.<br>We have a strong research group culture and run regular departmental seminars which feature invited external speakers.<br><br>Given the breadth of our provision within the Department of Language and Linguistics, career prospects for our graduates vary depending on the study undertaken. Often the career destination of our PhD students is university lecturing or research. Given the interdisciplinary nature of the areas of linguistics we cover, this could be in departments of English, linguistics, education, sociology or cognitive science.
