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

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.

Description:

The Department of Computational Linguistics at Saarland University,
Saarbruecken, Germany, invites applications for a scientist position
('Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter') in a DFG-funded project on Lexical
Semantics (subject to final confirmation).

The successful candidate will have a good background in Natural Language
Processing and Computational Semantics, preferrably holding a PhD in
Computational Linguistics or a related field. He/she will contribute to a
project with a focus on corpus-based methods for the acquisition of
lexical-semantic information. Experience in data-intensive methods is
essential. A background in lexical-semantic theory is a definite plus.
He/she will join a young, creative research team and should have good team
working skills.

Saarbruecken University is one of the leading European research sites in
Computational Linguistics and offers an active, stimulating research
environment. Close cooperations exist with other disciplines (esp. Computer
Science and Artificial Intelligence). The institute offers an international
MSc program and hosts the International Post-Graduate College in Language
Technology and Cognitive Systems.

Salary and social benefits are according to Germany's public sector BAT IIa
scale, currently between 2900 and 3800 Euro per month (before taxes),
depending on age and family situation. Saarland University aims at
increasing the proportion of women in academic research and teaching, and
encourages women to apply.
