The Cognitive and Linguistic Sciences program at Wellesley College invites

Candidates will have a demonstrated commitment to teaching at the

candidates who can demonstrate through their teaching, research or service
that they can contribute to the diversity and excellence of our community.

Wellesley College is a highly selective liberal arts college for women,
located 12 miles west of Boston. Qualifications for the position include a
Ph.D. in linguistics by the appointed start date of the position. Applicants
should submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, teaching statement, and the
names/email addresses of three references through our online application
system.

Wellesley College complies with its internal policy on equal employment
opportunity and with state and federal law, which prohibit discrimination
against candidates for employment on the basis of race, color, religion, age,
sex, sexual orientation, pregnancy, national origin, ethnicity, physical or
mental disability, genetic information, veteran’s status or membership in
uniformed armed services, or any other classes protected by law.

Wellesley College is an Equal Opportunity Employer, and we are committed to
increasing the diversity of the college community and the curriculum.

discrimination against qualified individuals based on their status as
protected veterans or individuals with disabilities, and prohibit
discrimination against all individuals based on their race, color, religion,
sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or national origin. Moreover, these
regulations require that Wellesley College and all of its subcontractors take
affirmative action to employ and advance in employment individuals without

contribute to that goal are encouraged to apply.
