Description:

Professor in Computational Linguistics (permanent post) - Ref: A5966.

Deadline for applications: 3rd March 2013.

The Research Institute in Information and Language Processing at University of
Wolverhampton seeks to appoint a Professor in Computational Linguistics. We
are very keen to hear from outstanding individuals.

Since its inception, the Research Group in Computational Linguistics
(http://clg.wlv.ac.uk) has become an international leader in applied NLP and
has been very successful in securing funding from highly competitive sources.
This has enabled members of the Group to make important contributions to
different areas of NLP and computational linguistics. The results from the
Research Assessment Exercise announced in December 2008 confirmed the Research
Group in Computational Linguistics as one of the top performers in UK
research. The research output of the group has been rated as internationally
leading, internationally excellent and internationally recognized.
Computational Linguistics was entered in Unit of Assessment "Linguistics" and
Wolverhampton was ranked joint 3rd with 2 more universities. According to the
league tables of the Guardian, The Times and Research Fortnight, research in
Linguistics at the University of Wolverhampton is one of the top 6 best in the
UK.

The group is seeking to recruit a Professor to contribute to the further
development of this area of our activity by producing research that is
internationally acknowledged to be of the highest standard, to offer excellent
research supervision and teaching in the interdisciplinary areas of natural
language processing and computational linguistics and to deliver cutting-edge
practical applications (including commercial applications) to the benefit of
society based on its research output. The proposed development will underpin
our teaching on the prestigious International Erasmus Mundus Master Programme
in NLP&HLT. The new professor would come at the right time to support the new
and successful Marie Curie ITN FP7-funded project EXPERT where the group will
be involved in additional supervision of PhD students and early career
researchers. The new professor will have a significant impact on our income
generation activities.

It is anticipated that an experienced research fellow and PhD student will be
appointed in due course to support this post.

Remuneration packages may include research expenses and support posts and PhD
Studentships may be available in certain cases.

Further information can be obtained from Professor Ruslan Mitkov at the
contact email address below.
