Description:

The Department of Linguistics at Northwestern University invites applications
for a full-time, non-renewable, two year postdoctoral fellowship in any area
of linguistics. We are looking for candidates who pursue an integrated,
interdisciplinary approach to the scientific study of language, utilizing
experimental methods, corpus analysis, and/or computational modeling to inform
linguistic theory and its applications. The fellowship period begins September
1, 2017. 

Each year, the fellow will be expected to teach one undergraduate-level course
in the Department of Linguistics. The fellow will also serve as an
undergraduate adviser for the Cognitive Science Program, working with students
pursuing the major and minor on academic issues (e.g., course selection,
research opportunities, progress on degree requirements).

The fellow will join a vibrant interdisciplinary community of researchers from
across the cognitive sciences (including communication sciences, computer
science, learning sciences, music cognition, neuroscience, philosophy, and
psychology). The fellow’s research will be supported by the facilities of the
Department of Linguistics. Candidates must hold a Ph.D. in Linguistics or a
related field (e.g., Cognitive Neuroscience, Cognitive Science, Computer
Science, Philosophy, Psychology, Speech and Hearing Sciences) by the start
date. Please include a CV that includes contact information, brief statements
of research and teaching interests (1-3 pages each), up to 3 reprints or other
written work (including thesis chapters for ABD applicants), teaching
evaluations (if available), and the names and contact information for three
references. Please visit the application URL below for online application
instructions. 

Northwestern University is an Equal Opportunity, Affirmative Action Employer
of all protected classes including veterans and individuals with disabilities.
Women and minorities are encouraged to apply. Hiring is contingent upon
eligibility to work in the United States.
