The Class of Language at the Graduate School Language & Literature, Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (LMU Munich), offers a dynamic and interdisciplinary environment for doctoral research in linguistics and language sciences. The program is designed to provide a research-oriented and systematically structured curriculum, complemented by individual and intensive supervision from faculty members across a broad spectrum of linguistic disciplines. Doctoral candidates benefit from a vibrant academic community, with opportunities for exchange among peers, faculty, and international visiting scholars. The program fosters interdisciplinary collaboration, drawing on the strengths of related fields such as language education, literature, and cultural history. For the summer semester 2026, the Class of Language is inviting applications for one funded doctoral position (TV-L E13, 50%, part-time, 20 hours/week), with an expected start date of April 1, 2026. In addition to the funded position, regular unfunded places in the doctoral program are available. All admitted applicants who do not receive a scholarship will be actively supported in seeking external doctoral funding. Financial support is also provided for research and conference travel, enhancing the academic experience and professional development of doctoral researchers. The application deadline is December 7, 2025. The program is ideal for candidates with a strong academic background and research interest in linguistics or related language sciences. Applicants must hold a Master’s degree or equivalent. The Graduate School’s interdisciplinary approach and supportive environment make it an excellent choice for those seeking advanced research training in linguistics.
