    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:
