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.

Postdoctoral Fellowships in Cognitive Science at New Bulgarian
University

The Central and East European Center for Cognitive Science at New
Bulgarian University invites applications for one-year post-doctoral
fellowships for the 2003/2004 academic year (with a possible
extension). The successful candidates will have an active research
program in an area of cognitive science that complements thestrengths
of current faculty at the Center.  Preferred areas include:

-  Analogy Making: Computational Modeling and Experimental Research
   (Boicho Kokinov, Maurice Grinberg)
-  Cognitive Architectures (DUAL) (Boicho Kokinov, Maurice Grinberg)
-  Constructive Memory: Computational Modeling and Experimental
   Research (Boicho Kokinov, Maurice Grinberg, Encho Gerganov, Lyudmil
   Mavlov, David Popivanov, Elena Andonova)
-  Context and Context Sensitivity of Human Behavior (Boicho Kokinov,
   Maurice Grinberg, Encho Gerganov, Elena Andonova, Stefan Mateeff,
   Angel Vassilev)
-  Cognitive Economics and Decision-Making (Boicho Kokinov, Maurice
   Grinberg, Stefan Mateeff)
-  Human Conceptual System (Lilia Gurova, Encho Gerganov, Elena
   Andonova, Maurice Grinberg, Boicho Kokinov)
-  Language Processing: Behavioral Experimental Research and Modeling
   (Elena Andonova, Encho Gerganov, Lyudmil Mavlov, Maurice Grinberg,
   David Popivanov)
-  Visual Perception: Experimental Research and Modeling (Stefan
   Mateeff, Angel Vassilev, Maurice Grinberg, Naum Yakimoff)

The Post-Doctoral Fellows are expected to interact with faculty and
graduate students and to work on research projects. The available
research facilities include an experimental psychology lab, a
neuroscience lab (EEG and eye-tracking equipment), and a usability
lab. As part of the application process, applicants are strongly
encouraged to contact one or more of the faculty members in the Center
for Cognitive Science and discuss possible research activities. More
information on faculty, and the Center generally, is available at:
http://www.nbu.bg/cogs/center/index.html

Applications (statement of purpose, CV, list of publications, 2
letters of recommendation) are welcome by the June 1st, 2003 to the
following address:
