The course portfolio includes obligatory courses in Research Ethics, Theory of Science and Academic Writing, as well as elective thematic courses, e.g. organised by the national PhD school in linguistics until 2021(Language and Text: Methodologies and Applications for the Digital Age, formerly Lingphil).
