================================================================  

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

Applicants should have a completed Ph.D. and an excellent command of English. A

Limited-term appointments will normally be at the rank of Lecturer or Assistant

courses per semester. Under the provisions of the CUFA collective agreement,
these positions may be renewed twice subject to continued need.  Please forward

until the required position has been filled. 

Applications should consist of a letter of intent, a curriculum vitae, copies of
recent publications, a statement of teaching interests, evidence of teaching
effectiveness, if available, and three letters of reference. All qualified
candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and permanent residents
will be given priority. Concordia University is committed to employment equity.
