Description:

The Faculty of Linguistics and Literary Studies at Bielefeld University seeks
to fill by April 1st 2017 the post: Professorship (W3) for Psycholinguistics

The applicant (f/m) must be internationally well established in the field of
psycholinguistics, have an excellent track record in acquiring research
funding, and have experience in teaching at undergraduate and graduate level.
A strong publication record at the state of the art in theory and empirical
research of written and spoken language production and processing as well as
its development is expected.

The development and experimental evaluation of psycholinguistic models of
verbal communication should be a major focus of the applicant's research. The
following are expected: a) profound knowledge of speech production and speech
processing, as exhibited in top-class publications; b) a wide methodological
knowledge, comprising behavioural and psychonomic methods of measurement and
experimental and explorative methods (including e.g. eye tracking); c)
expertise in state of the art statistical analysis methods.

Desirable is expertise in the following areas: a) empirical study of speech
processing in communication; b) language acquisition; c) grammar-theoretical
foundations of the studied phenomena.

Willingness to cooperate with the other areas of linguistics represented in
Bielefeld is expected. An important part of this is the supervision or
co-supervision of graduate theses, especially together with colleagues from
clinical linguistics. Participation in existing (e.g., excellence cluster in
cognitive interaction technology, CITEC) and planned interdisciplinary
research projects on the topic of the processing of speech communication is
also expected.

The applicant will be responsible for the "Psycholinguistics" track in the MA
linguistics programme, and will contribute to BA and MA courses in Linguistics
and Clinical Linguistics.

A necessary requirement is a completed university degree, teaching experience,
a doctoral degree, and additional scientific contributions, the
appropriateness of which will wholly and exclusively be judged by the finding
committee (cf § 36 HG). Applications from abroad are welcome. Applicants for
which German is not a first language should be able to hold undergraduate
lectures in German, within 4 years.

The faculty sees gender equality as an important goal, and expects the
successful applicant to contribute to the work towards it.

Applications from applicants with severe disabilities, or equivalent, are
expressly encouraged.

Bielefeld University has repeatedly been awarded for its successes in working
towards gender equality, and is a certified "family friendly University".
Applications from women are strongly encouraged, especially in the areas of
technology, IT, and manufacturing. Applications will be dealt with in
accordance to state laws.

Applications including the usual documents (cv, list of publications, list of
courses taught, copies of academic degrees) should be sent as a single PDF
document by May 5, 2016, to the application email below or via postal mail to
the address below.

Please do not send any originals, as the received documents will be destroyed
at the end of the proceedings.

For your information, and without any guarantees: We expect to invite selected
applicants to give presentations in early October 2016.
