Subject: Romance; Italian; General Linguistics: Assistant Professor, The University of Zurich, Switzerland

 
University or Organization: The University of Zurich 
Department: Faculty of Arts
Job Location: Zurich, Switzerland 
Web Address: http://www.degrees.uzh.ch/en/master/50000007
Job Title: tenure-track assistant professorship in Romance Studies (Italian Linguistics)
Job Rank: Assistant Professor

Specialty Areas: General Linguistics 

Required Language(s): Italian (ita)
                      Romance 

Description:

The position should be filled at the earliest opportunity. After two temporary
three-year contracts the position will become tenured on the condition that
the candidate passes the evaluation process.

Candidates should be able to teach Italian linguistics in its entire range.
The main research focus of the position is synchronic linguistics. Expertise
in contact and migration linguistics (e.g. in the context of other Romance
languages) is required. Furthermore, candidates are expected to cooperate in
joint initiatives in teaching and research. The language of instruction is
Italian. Since administrative work is conducted in German, non-German speaking
candidates are expected to acquire a working knowledge of German within the
first two years of appointment.

Candidates are required to hold a PhD degree at the time of application and to
have an excellent record of academic achievements in the relevant field (for
example, advanced postdoctoral research or Habilitation project). Since the
University of Zurich seeks to increase the number of women in research and
teaching positions as well as in leading academic positions, qualified female
researchers are particularly encouraged to apply.

Applications must be submitted online by 2 September 2018.

Instructions regarding the online application process are available on
www.phil.uzh.ch/jobs.html. For further information please contact Prof. Dr.
Michele Loporcaro at the contact information provided below.
