In-Demand Phd Jobs in Frankston, Vic

The Monash Japanese Language Education Hub (MJLEH) was established in 1996 with a grant from the Nippon Foundation. Housed in the Japanese Studies Centre and affiliated with the School of Languages, Literatures, Cultures and Linguistics (Faculty of Arts), the Hub provides a variety of activities and programs dedicated to improving and supporting the teaching and learning of Japanese in Australia.
The MJLEH Scholarships support graduate researchers to complete a PhD at Monash University on a topic related to the acquisition and/or teaching of Japanese Language and Cultural Literacy. Awardees will also become Fellows of the Nippon Foundation. One award is made available each year, up to a total of two awards to be held concurrently.

Research Areas

Projects must broadly contribute to supporting and improving the teaching and learning of Japanese language and culture in Australia, particularly in the states of Victoria, South Australia, and Tasmania. Eligible research areas include:

Second language learners and language acquisition
Teaching of Japanese language and/or cultural competency
Projects incorporating a multilingual or multinational perspective on Japanese language teaching/learning
Projects that fulfil these requirements and link to existing research strengths within the Faculty of Arts are especially welcomed.

Candidate Requirements

The successful applicant will have an excellent academic track record in a relevant field (e.g., Languages, Linguistics, Education, or relevant Social Science discipline).

In its assessment, the selection committee will prioritise applicants who hold an Australian (or equivalent international) Honours or Master’s degree (both in a relevant field), with a significant research component and with first-class honours/H1 awarded.

Details of eligibility requirements, including English-language proficiency skills, to undertake a PhD in the Faculty of Arts are available at www.monash.edu/arts/graduate_research/how-to-apply. Applicants should ensure they familiarise themselves with these requirements before deciding whether they should apply.
