WHAT ABOUT ENROLLING IN A PhD PROGRAM?

The Universitat de Barcelona offers the possibility of enrolling in a Doctoral Program which continues the lines of research you have seen in the Master. In the PhD Program, students' ongoing work is supervised by an expert in the area.

PhD Program in a Nutshell

The doctoral program at the University of Barcelona was offered for the first time in 2000 and was a pioneer in this field of study in Spain. The program is coordinated by the GRAL Group (Language Acquisition Research), and has obtained the label of "Excellence" by the Catalan government. The quality of this PhD has also been acknowledged by the Spanish 'Ministerio de Educación', which has recognized the program with a Quality Award since 2003 until the present (MCD2008-00025). Nowadays the program is fully consolidated with an international student body, a stable group of graduate research assistants, a regular program of visiting lecturers from prestigious universities abroad, and student-oriented faculty members with extensive research experience in the field.

Lines of Research

The European doctoral program in Applied Linguistics at the University of Barcelona provides rigorous training for specialists in research and education. The program offers three broad fields of study:

  • Second Language Acquisition (SLA)
  • Integrated Language Learning
  • Classroom Research and Discourse Analysis

These fields can be investigated in a number of contexts (instructed/informal, monolingual/bilingual, study abroad/at home, etc.) and under different research paradigms (statistical, survey, interpretative, etc.).
