The UCLA Department of Linguistics seeks to fill a ladder faculty position

The teaching load is normally four courses per year, and will include graduate

members also customarily participate in informal seminars attended by graduate
students and other faculty members working in their subfield. Salary will be
commensurate with education and experience.
