The Doctoral School of “Sciences du Langage” is composed of 3 departments at Paris Diderot :

• The department of Anglophone Studies
• The department of Intercultural Studies of Applied Languages
• The department of Linguistics

The doctoral school relies on three research units:

• Centre de Linguistique Inter-langues, de Lexicologie, de Linguistique Anglaise et de Corpus et Atelier de Recherche sur la Parole (CLILLAC-ARP, EA 3967)
• Laboratoire d'Histoire des Théories Linguistiques (HTL, UMR 7597)
• Laboratoire de Linguistique Formelle (LLF, UMR 7110)
• Centre population et développement (CEPED, UMR 196)
• Centre de recherche sur les liens sociaux (CERLIS, UMR 8070)
• Laboratoire de recherches en éducation (EDA, EA 4071)
• Centre de recherches en philosophie, sociologie, sémiologie et politique (PHILéPOL, EA 7538)

Research is centered around the following main areas, corresponding to the doctoral degrees:

1. Language sciences
2. Linguistics :
   • General, theoretical, descriptive and experimental linguistics (phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics)
   • Computational linguistics
   • History and epistemology of language sciences
   • Language typology, language diversity, with an emphasis on Chinese linguistics, African languages, Romance languages
   • French as a foreign language
3. English linguistics
4. Translation sciences :
   • Automatic language processing
   • Translation studies

The doctoral school of language sciences trains researchers in the linguistic description and analysis of diverse phenomena in a wide variety of languages, relying on different theoretical frameworks and experimental approaches. In conjunction with research training, PhD students at ED 622 are encouraged to pursue careers in applied domains (language industry, voice technologies, language instruction, and speech therapy).

Our graduates pursue careers in both academia and industry. Many of them engage in teaching and research, while others follow opportunities in the realm of new communication technologies or in the distribution and creation of oral or written linguistic resources.
