Multilingualism Doctoral School

Multilingualism Doctoral School

There has been research in the fields of psycholinguistics and multilingualism for over 20 years at the Department of the Hungarian and Applied Liguistics Institute of the University of Pannonia, and the doctoral training started in 2016. Headed by Professor Judit Navracsics the Multilingualism Doctoral School was founded, where such internationally acknowledged professors have taught and teach as Prof. Valéria Csépe, Prof. István Csernicskó, Prof. Ulrike Jessner-Schmid, Prof. Marjolijn Verspoor, Prof. Anat Stavans, Prof. Vincent van Heuven, Prof. Kees de Bot as well as our guest lecturers Prof. Marilyn Vihman, Prof. Margaret Deuchar, Prof. Martin Bygate and Prof. Henriette Hendriks.

The focus of the doctoral School - unlike other doctoral schools in linguistics - is to extend the study in general to the study of co-existence of several languages in the individual, in the society and in school context.

We expect applicants, who would like to do research concerning the multilingual person and multilingual communities, as well as language teachers, who would contribute to the renewal of language teaching and language learning and making these more effective by academic reasearch.
