As soon as possible, Professor Crispin Thurlow is seeking someone to undertake a doctoral sub-project as part of his Swiss National Science Foundation project, Articulating Rubbish: A Sociolinguistic Approach to the "Crisis of Waste" (2023 to 2027). The project comprises two other doctoral sub-projects, starting 01 May 2023.
We are looking to find a suitably qualified (see next paragraph) motivated person to join our research team. This person would be expected to work within the framework of the main project but may, within reason, tailor the preconceived framework for the sub-project to suit their own expertise, interests, and access networks. Ideally, given visa and work permit paperwork, we would like this person to start as soon as possible after 01 May 2023.
An MA or equivalent degree is mandatory. Ideally this will be in sociolinguistics, discourse studies, or linguistic anthropology. Degrees in cognate fields or fields related to discard studies will also be considered.
