The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to engage in non-discriminatory 
hiring practices. We urge employers not to discriminate on the grounds of race, 
ethnicity, nationality, disability, 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:

Carleton University's School of Linguistics and Language Studies invites 
applications for a two-year term (non-continuing) position in Linguistics 
(Phonetics and Phonology) and Spanish at the level of Instructor I, 
commencing July 1, 2012. Native or native-like fluency in Spanish is 
required, and a Ph.D. or equivalent in Spanish Linguistics or related area with 
a specialization in phonetics and phonology is preferred. 

This is a teaching position with a load of seven courses per year over Fall 
and Winter terms, with a possibility of one of the seven courses being 
scheduled for the Spring term (May-June), subject to preferences of the 
successful candidate and the needs of the School. The successful candidate 
will be expected to teach undergraduate courses to a culturally diverse 
student body. Potential courses are, for the Linguistics program (taught in 
English): Phonetics, Phonology I, Phonology II, and Structure of Spanish; and 
for the Spanish program (taught in Spanish): Spanish language at one of four 
levels, Introduction to Spanish Linguistics, and topic(s) in Spanish 
Linguistics. 

The School's programs in Linguistics and Spanish are housed in a unit 
representing a rich diversity of perspectives on language, with courses in 
these areas as well as Applied Linguistics and Discourse Studies, Arabic, 
Chinese (Mandarin), German, Italian, Japanese, and Russian, as well as 
Communication Courses for Disciplines and Professions and courses in 
English as a Second Language for international students, immigrants and 
refugees. Detailed information on the School can be found at 
http://www.carleton.ca/slals/. 

All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply, but in accordance with 
Canadian immigration requirements, applications from Canadians and 
permanent residents will be given priority. Carleton University is an excellent 
employer, and is strongly committed to fostering diversity within its 
community as a source of excellence, cultural enrichment and social 
strength. We welcome those who would contribute to the further 
diversification of our faculty and its scholarship, including but not limited to 
women, visible minorities, Aboriginal peoples, persons with disabilities, and 
persons of any sexual orientation or gender identity.

Carleton University is located on a beautiful campus in the central portion of 
Ottawa, bounded by the Rideau River on one side, and the Rideau Canal on 
the other. Its prime location -- minutes from downtown, an international 
airport, and the Gatineau Hills -- enhances quality of life, and allows for 
recreational opportunities for individuals and families. With a population of 
almost one million, the city of Ottawa is Canada's capital and reflects the 
country's bilingual and multicultural character. 

Applications should be submitted via post or email to the application address 
or email address below. Letters of application should be accompanied by a 
curriculum vitae as well as a concise dossier that includes written evidence 
of teaching effectiveness. Three letters of reference should be sent directly to 
the Director. The closing date for receipt of applications, including the letters 
of reference, is November 18, 2011.

This position is subject to final budgetary approval.
