The Erasmus Mundus Program "International Doctorate for Experimental Approaches to Language And Brain" (IDEALAB) has been established as an outstanding 3-year doctoral training to its candidates with a primary focus on language acquisition and disorders integrating interdisciplinary approaches.

For this purpose, four European universities (Potsdam (GER),Groningen (NL), Newcastle- upon-Tyne (GB), Trento/Rovereto (IT)) and one non-European university (Macquarie University Sydney (AU)) provide an intellectual environment for original and independent research on experimental and clinical aspects of language and the brain. Associated members from Research & Development industries contribute in various ways to the program and stimulate an innovative environment. They are potential co-supervisors and are involved in training.
Finally, there are seven clinics associated to the consortium, amongst others the non-European rehabilitation center in Moscow which is the world’s largest centre for language disorders in the world. The associated clinics provide internships to study unimpaired as well as impaired language of children and adults.

The program is jointly offered by a transnational consortium with an integrated study program along with required mobility between the participating institutions. The mobility plan of each individual young researcher is tailored according to the particular specialities required by the thesis topic.

The application period begins in September and ends on November 15, 2013. Further information can be found at our website:

Human Technology Centre (HumTec) at RWTH Aachen University invites applications for a Ph.D. student position combining cognitive linguistics, gesture research, and motion capture technology.
This part-time (50%) doctoral research position is anchored in a soon-to-start interdisciplinary project whose aim is a) to derive cognitive, linguistic and behavioral patterns from complex multimodal corpora (e.g. translation processes data and multimodal speech and action data) and b) to build an electronic research platform to be made available to the community. The research group, consisting of doctoral, postdoctoral, and senior researchers from linguistics, semiotics, computer science and information management, will be funded over a period of 3,5 years by the Excellence Initiative of the German Federal and State Governments.

The successful candidate has an excellent Masters Degree in linguistics/semiotics/cognitive science and, in particular, a strong background in cognitive linguistics, hands-on experience with empirical gesture research and ideally also with using motion capture technology in the context of multimodal interaction research. If no prior MoCap experience exists, a genuine technical affinity/creativity (e.g., programming, digital media) is desirable to ensure smooth and constructive collaboration within the project (for information on the lab equipment, see www.humtec.rwth-aachen.de/nmlab). The position is to be filled as soon as possible; funding will be provided for 3.5 years pending a positive evaluation after the first 1.5 years.

The doctoral research of this particular position will be mainly overseen by Prof. Irene Mittelberg (Linguistics & Cognitive Semiotics) and Prof. Stella Neumann (English Linguistics; project speaker); it is possible to add a faculty member from another discipline to the dissertation committee. The working language is English. All HumTec doctoral students have the opportunity to take part in language courses and career development programs offered by the Center for Doctoral Studies.

To be considered for this position, please include the following documents in your application materials: a cover letter, a CV, a list with the names of three referees, and a 3-4 page research statement detailing your experience with and interest in multimodal interaction research using a MoCap system.

Application deadline: July 3, 2013.

PhD studentships are available for the doctoral program in Cognitive Science at Central European University (CEU).

The

Department of Cognitive Science at CEU invites applications for

doctoral student positions starting in September 2013. This is a

research-based training program in human cognition with social cognition and learning as core themes. Research

topics include cooperation, communication, social learning, cultural

transmission, embodied cognition, joint action, developmental social

cognition, strategic decision-making, problem solving, visual cognition, sensory and statistical learning, visual psychophysics, computational

neuroscience, and social cognitive neuroscience. Students will follow

courses in cognitive psychology, philosophy of mind, cognitive

anthropology, computational cognition and linguistics, and will receive

practical research training in the laboratories of the members of this

new department.?

Admission criteria

Applicants are expected to hold an internationally recognized

Master?s or comparable degree in the standard disciplines that

constitute cognitive science. A comparable degree in other Social

Sciences, Humanities, or other disciplines will also be considered in

case of an excellent academic record.?We will consider the applications

of exceptional students who only hold a Bachelor degree, provided it is

in a discipline closely associated to cognitive science.

Application materials

As part of their application package, applicants must submit the following materials as general CEU requirements:

1. The completed Online Application Form 2013/2014?

2. A curriculum vitae?or resume, including a list of publications, if any

3. Proof of English proficiency (please see CEU Language Requirements here)

4. Two letters of recommendation

5. Academic records – please see?http://www.ceu.hu/admissions/apply#3?.

A Department of?Cognitive Science would like to add the following departmental specific requirements:

1. a research proposal of 1000 to 2000 words. The research proposal

should include the research questions, aims and objectives of a research project that is related to the ongoing work in?the department. The

proposal should situate the project in the context of the existing

literature, be clear as to the expected academic contribution, and

outline possible appropriate analytical frameworks and methodologies.

Note that, if admitted, students will not be expected to pursue the

research project as it is outlined in the proposal (though it may form

the basis of their doctoral work). The submitted research proposal will

be used during the application process to assess the applicant's

understanding of what doing research in cognitive science entails.

We?encourage applicants to consult the website and approach

appropriate members of the faculty in advance in order to check the

suitability of their research plans.
