Ideal candidates have an excellent Master's degree in Computational Linguistics or a related field and link to the strengths of the group and the excellent research context in Tübingen. Candidates with an interdisciplinary interest in Second Language Learning, Education, or Psychology are particularly encouraged to apply and may be associated with the Excellence Initiative LEAD graduate school in Empirical Educational Science: http://purl.org/lead/4

Applications should include:

- Cover letter spelling out research experience & interest in position
- Academic CV
