 ==========================================================================
The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to use
non-discriminatory standards in hiring policy. In particular we urge
that employers do not discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity,
nationality, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we
have no means of enforcing these standards.

Job seekers should pay special attention to language in ads regarding
employment requirements and are encouraged to consult our international
employment page http://linguistlist.org/jobnet.html.

This page has been set up so that people can report on the employment
standards of various countries.

University or Organization: National Chi Nan University
Department: Foreign Languages and Literature
Rank of Job: Rank Open
Specialty Areas: Computational Linguistics, General Linguistics,
  Language Description, Linguistic Theories, Phonology, Semantics,
  Chinese Linguistics


Description:

Applicants should have a Ph.D. in hand by July of 2003; the contract
begins August 1st, with classes beginning in late September. More
senior applicants, with significant qualifications beyond the Ph.D.,
will be considered for a higher rank; they are particularly encouraged
to apply.  Applications will be received until one month after this
announcement is posted or the position is filled (whichever is later).

Full-time faculty are required to (a) conduct and publish scholarly
research, (b) supervise M.A. thesis research, (c) teach linguistics
courses at undergraduate/M.A. levels, and (d) teach undergraduate
courses such as English composition.

In addition to the disciplinary areas which we would especially like
to hire in (semantics, phonology, and computational linguistics), the
Department would be quite interested in linguists able to supervise
M.A. research on topics in Sinitic languages. (Suffice it to say,
because of the language-area preference in this announcement, ability
to function in spoken and written Chinese is highly desirable.)

For a list of required materials that must be sent in, please consult
the official announcement, posted in Chinese on the following URL:

http://web.ncnu.edu.tw/ncnu/ann/20030307hire3.htm

(This web site also advertises open positions in literature.)

In addition to undergraduate and M.A. programs in English literature,
the Department offers an undergraduate concentration in linguistics
and an M.A.  program in theoretical linguistics. The current faculty
are specialized in syntax, semantics, morphology, phonology, and
language and mind.
