Visiting Assistant Professor of Linguistics

The Linguistics Department at the University of Oregon announces the
opening of a non- tenure related Visiting Assistant Professor position for
the 1998-1999 academic year, potentially renewable pending funding,
ranging from .50 to 1.0 FTE depending on Departmental needs.

The Linguistics Department of Oregon enjoys a long tradition of work
within the functionalist tradition, concentrating in descriptive work and
field work and in empirical work on language use, discourse, and language
acquisition.  We invite applications from qualified individuals who can
contribute to the functional and typological orientation of the
department.

Since the openings fill teaching gaps for faculty on leave, the candidate
must show evidence of considerable teaching skill, at both undergraduate
and graduate levels.  The successful applicant must be able to help cover
our core curriculum, which includes phonetics, phonology,
functional-typological morphosyntax, semantics, and second language
acquisition and teaching.  Additional specializations in discourse,
psycholinguistics, and/or historical syntax and grammaticalization will be
particularly attractive, depending on department needs.

In addition, the successful applicant must have an active research profile
and must be able to direct graduate student research.

Qualifications:  Ph.D. in Linguistics

Duties: Up to two courses per term of hire (we are on a quarter system)
	 Mentor students in research projects, as needed
	 Participate in department life, as appropriate

Please submit a letter of application, vita, and names, addresses, phone
numbers and e- mail addresses of three references to:  VAP Search
Committee, Department of Linguistics, University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon
97403.  Applications must be received by June 1, 1998 to receive fullest
consideration.
