Theoretical Linguistics PhD
About

General

The Ph.D. programme in Theoretical Linguistics is part of the ELTE Doctoral School of Linguistics. The doctoral candidate is expected to work within a theoretical framework that allows the exploration of the principles and rules that determine the nature of a language, or of natural language in general. The traditional main branches of theoretical linguistics, including phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics form the core of the training, but the doctoral candidate may also work on the relationship between linguistics and another discipline (e.g. philosophy, literature, mathematics, logic, phonetics, cognitive psychology, sociology, computer science).

Application requirements

For the admission to the Ph.D. programme, applicants are required to have an MA degree in any subject, not necessarily in linguistics, in addition to a basic working knowledge of linguistics. They also need to demonstrate the ability to carry out independent research.

Proficiency in English is required, and knowledge of a second foreign language is also recommended. The application must include a professionally justifiable research proposal. 

In all other respects, the doctoral regulations of the Faculty of Humanities at ELTE are applicable.
