Description:

The Department of Linguistics, Languages and Cultures (LLC) in the Faculty of Arts invites applications for a full-time tenure-track position at the rank of Assistant Professor, effective July 1, 2014. The area of specialization is Linguistics/Syntax. 

Individuals with an earned doctoral degree in Linguistics or a related field and who have potential for excellent achievement in teaching and research are invited to apply.  LLC seeks applications from syntacticians whose research addresses important theoretical issues using empirical methods such as experimentation, field work or corpus analysis. A secondary specialization is desirable; strength in East Asian languages would be an asset. 

Applicants are expected to teach four half courses per academic year at the undergraduate and graduate levels, develop a high-profile, productive research program that regularly yields publications in peer-reviewed scholarly outputs and other appropriate publication locations, mentor and supervise graduate students, commit to departmental and university service and engage with the community.  

Individuals interested in this position are requested to submit: a cover letter, curriculum vitae, statement of research interests, sample research publications, statement of teaching focus and philosophy (including potential courses to be taught), previous course syllabi, teaching evaluations (if available) and three letters of recommendation (with at least one letter addressing teaching ability) to Dr. Florentine Strzelczyk at the application address or email address below.

The deadline for applications is December 20th, 2013. Applications submitted via email in .pdf format are preferred.

For questions about the position, please contact Dr. Florentine Strzelczyk at the contact email address below.
