Accepting PhD Students

PhD projects

I have previously supervised a large number of doctoral students in areas of sociolinguistics, social psychology of language and in applied linguistics more widely. I would particularly welcome PhD proposals from individuals intending to conduct folklinguistic research, and most especially attitudes towards spoken language variation, as well as research in the areas of variationist sociolinguistics, sociophonetics, global Englishes, the social psychology of language, varieties of English and language and identity more generally.
