Description:

The Department of Linguistics and Germanic, Slavic, Asian and African 
Languages at Michigan State University seeks to fill a tenure-system 
appointment in Psycholinguistics at the Assistant Professor level to begin 
August 16, 2012. A Ph.D. in Linguistics, Psychology, or a closely related 
field is required by time of appointment. Candidates should be able to 
demonstrate the relevance of their research interests to other areas of 
linguistics, such as phonology, syntax, formal semantics, language 
acquisition, sociolinguistics or neurolinguistics. We especially welcome 
candidates whose research is crosslinguistic in nature. 

This position will complement strengths in formal and experimental 
linguistics in the Linguistics Program. The successful candidate should 
have a record of publication and/or presentations, expertise in adult 
language processing (comprehension or production), and outstanding 
potential to obtain external funding. We seek applicants who can contribute 
to collaborative research and teaching across subdisciplines within 
linguistics and to interdisciplinary research in Cognitive Science. The 
position holder will benefit from the interdisciplinary MSU Cognitive Science 
Program, which fosters scholarship and research that transcends traditional 
disciplinary boundaries in the pursuit of the nature of mind, and provides a 
structure for graduate training designed to produce new scholars and 
scientists in the field. Contributions to the linguistics curriculum at both the 
graduate and undergraduate level are expected, as well as the ability to 
teach an introductory course in Cognitive Science. 

Review of applications will begin December 31, 2011 and will continue until 
the position is filled. For more information contact Alan Munn, Chair of the 
Search Committee (email address below). Applications must be submitted 
electronically to the Michigan State Human Resources web site (application 
URL below; posting #5543). Applicants should submit a CV and a letter 
describing research and teaching interests as well as the names and email 
addresses of 3 potential referees. 

MSU is an affirmative action, equal opportunity employer. MSU is 
committed to achieving excellence through cultural diversity. The University 
actively encourages applications and/or nominations of women, persons of 
color, veterans and persons with disabilities.


Application Deadline: 31-Dec-2011 (Open until filled)
