Description:

A Researcher position is available at the Center for Multilingualism in
Society Across the Lifespan (MultiLing), at the Department of Linguistics and
Scandinavian Studies, University of Oslo.

The Researcher position is funded by the University of Oslo’s investment in
developing world-leading research communities, which also funded a new
Socio-Cognitive Laboratory at MultiLing, opened in March 2018. The laboratory
hosts a new 128-channel EEG system (BrainProducts ActiCHamp), an eyetracker
(SMI), cutting-edge video recording equipment, and software (Presentation,
E-Prime) for running behavioral experiments in three separate recording rooms.

MultiLing is a Center of Excellence funded by the Research Council of Norway
that opened on June 1, 2013. The Center has successfully completed the Midterm
Evaluation to secure funding for the second period of five years, until 2023.
MultiLing aims to generate scientific knowledge on multilingualism across the
lifespan, related to three themes: Multilingual competence, multilingual
practices, and multilingualism, ideologies and language policies (for more
information, see http://www.hf.uio.no/multiling/).

MultiLing seeks to recruit candidates with excellent academic qualifications
that are open, service-minded, well-organized and have strong collaboration
skills. The advertised position will be associated with the Socio-Cognitive
Laboratory. The candidate is expected to conduct her/his own lab-related
research 50 % of the working time. In addition to conducting her/his own
research, the successful candidate is expected to assist the researchers and
collaborators of MultiLing in their studies in the laboratory. The tasks
include training the researchers in the use of lab methods, helping them in
setting up studies, creating paradigms, and providing support in the analyses.
The successful candidate is also expected to actively develop and maintain
daily laboratory practices and routines and to participate in promoting the
visibility of the laboratory. Work duties are linked to MultiLing and
employment is dependent on funding of the Center. Continued employment from
June 2023 onwards is therefore dependent on funding from other sources.

See the job announcement at the application link provided below for
qualification requirements.
