About this position
The University of Stavanger invites applications for a PhD Fellowship in English Applied Linguistics at the Faculty of Arts and Education. The doctoral research will examine new multilingual classroom environments as arenas for reframing English language learning in primary and lower secondary schools.
The project addresses how multilingualism can become a valuable resource for English language teaching and learning. It responds to the need for stronger competence and support for teachers working with multilingual learners, while connecting research, educational practice and university–school partnerships.
The successful candidate will have substantial freedom to define a focused research project within the advertised topic. Possible areas include learner-generated materials, content and language integrated learning (CLIL), arts-based methods, participatory and dialogic teaching, collaborative teaching, and metalinguistic exploration. The research may focus on learners, in-service teachers or pre-service teachers; take place in primary school, lower secondary school or teacher education; and use a range of methodologies. Nordic, international or interdisciplinary approaches are welcome.
The fellow will join the PhD programme in Educational Sciences and Humanities, combining doctoral coursework with an independent research project, participation in national and international research communities, research dissemination, a trial lecture and a public thesis defence. The project will be developed within the academic community at the University of Stavanger, with supervision, mentoring, skills development and career planning. An international research stay at a relevant research institution is encouraged.
The position is based in the Faculty of Arts and Education, whose research and teacher-education environment includes work in languages, education, literacy, learning environments and school collaboration. The department maintains partnerships with schools and school authorities and supports interdisciplinary academic collaboration.
