Description:

The Department of Linguistics at the University of Rochester invites 
applications for a one year non-tenure track appointment as a visiting 
assistant professor to begin July 1, 2012; possibility of renewal. We seek 
candidates with a proven record of research in formal pragmatics and 
semantics, a record of excellence in teaching, and strong evidence of 
interest in interdisciplinary work. Applicants must have a Ph.D. in hand 
before the appointment starts. Duties include teaching established courses 
in the undergraduate and graduate curriculum and working with graduate 
students in allied fields such as experimental psychology and computer 
science.

Excellence in teaching is required, and breadth of teaching interest is highly 
desirable. The Department of Linguistics is part of a larger active 
interdisciplinary community consisting of faculty and students doing 
research in cognitive science, philosophy, computer science, and 
neuroscience. We seek candidates who are likely to further those 
connections. Salary is competitive and commensurate with experience.

Applicants should send a cover letter, a curriculum vitae, teaching 
evaluations if possible, and arrange to have three letters of recommendation 
sent to: Professor Joyce McDonough, c/o Carla Gottschalk 
(linguistics at rochester.edu). Review of applications will begin on March 1, 
2012 and continue until the position is filled. 

The University of Rochester, an Equal Opportunity Employer, has a 
commitment to diversity and encourages applications from candidates from 
groups underrepresented in higher education.


Application Deadline: 01-Mar-2012 (Open until filled)
