Description:

At the Faculty of Philological and Cultural Studies of the University of
Vienna, the position of a University Professor of Psycholinguistics (full
time, permanent position) is to be filled.

We seek applications from researchers able to build bridges from neural
circuits and psychological processes to linguistic behavior. An excellent,
experimentally-minded researcher in neuroscience-oriented psycholinguistics
will help to unify linguistics with other disciplines and faculties at the
University of Vienna, and also would play a keystone role in the university
neuroscience strategy by linking neuroscience to high-level complex cognition
(e.g., language, music,arts) in humans. Interest in evolutionary/comparative
questions would help to bridge the gap between human and animal species where
detailed investigations of cellular and molecular mechanisms are possible.

Successful candidates should have:
- Doctoral degree/PhD and post-doctoral experience at a university or other
research institution - Habilitation (venia docendi) in a subject field
relevant to this position or an internationally accepted equivalent
qualification is desirable
- Outstanding achievements in research, excellent publication record,
international reputation
- Experience in designing, procuring and managing large research projects, as
well as the willingness and ability to lead research groups
- Enthusiasm for excellent teaching, teaching experience at universities,
willingness to teach students at the bachelor's, master's, or doctoral level,
to supervise academic theses and to promoting young academic colleagues

We offer:
- a negotiable and attractive salary
- social insurance,  pension fund
- a “start-up package”
- attractive working conditions in a city with a high quality of living

The University of Vienna pursues a non-discriminatory employment policy
(http://diversity.univie.ac.at/en). The University aims to increase the number
of women in senior and in academic positions. Given equal qualifications,
preference will be given to female applicants.

Application documents:

Application letter, including a brief description of: 
- Current research interests and research plans for the immediate future
- Current and planned foci in academic teaching and the supervision of young
researchers 
- Academic curriculum vitae, including information about “esteem factors”
(e.g. experiences as a publisher, functions in research societies or programme
committees)

List of publications, including:
- Specification of five key publications which the applicant considers
particularly relevant to the advertised professorship
- Provision of an Internet link for download or electronic submission of PDF
versions of these five publications
- Information about citations and impact factors, depending on the common
practice in the relevant research area
- List of talks given, including information about invited keynote lectures at
international conferences
- List of acquired third-party funds (subject, duration, origin, volume) as
well as, if applicable, of inventions/patents
- Overview of previous academic teaching and supervised theses, especially
doctoral theses
- Teaching evaluations (if available)
- Copies of documents and certificates
