The Department of English Language and Literature at NUS invites applications

All candidates should have the potential to develop an international standing

NUS expects the highest standards of teaching and scholarship from its
faculty. In return, it offers excellent terms and conditions. There is
considerable support for research, including grants for research projects,
conference money and a very well funded library. Salary will be commensurate
