Description:

The department of Linguistics and English Language at the University of
Edinburgh is looking for a new colleague at the rank of Lecturer/Senior
Lecturer (in the UK system, equivalent to Assistant/Associate Professor in the
US system), in Semantics.

The successful candidate will have a relevant PhD. They will contribute
original research, high quality teaching, public impact, and leadership in an
area of Semantics. The post includes teaching at all levels of the curriculum
in the area, contributing to our thriving undergraduate and MSc programmes,
and supervising PhD students. The successful candidate will also be expected
to build collaborations and to demonstrate potential for attracting external
grant funding. An excellent publication record for your career stage and the
potential to make a significant contribution to the research culture of the
School are essential. 

We are open to candidates with a broad range of interests in the study of
meaning. We expect, though, that the successful candidate will contribute to
formal semantics teaching at undergraduate and postgraduate levels including
PhD supervision and curriculum development. We particularly encourage
candidates with a collaborative approach, who can situate their research in
the wider study of linguistics and other fields.
