University or Organization: Western Washington University 
Department: Linguistics
Job Location: Washington, USA 
Web Address: https://chss.wwu.edu/linguistics
Job Title: Assistant Professor of Linguistics (Semantics)
Job Rank: Assistant Professor

Specialty Areas: General Linguistics; Pragmatics; Semantics 


Description:

The Department of Linguistics at Western Washington University is inviting
applications for a tenure-track position at the rank of Assistant Professor
beginning September 2020. We seek a specialist in semantics with demonstrated
ability to teach a wide range of undergraduate courses. The applicant would be
expected to teach a core course in semantics and pragmatics, an advanced
course in semantics or pragmatics, and other courses in the major, such as
introductory linguistics, linguistic analysis, and upper division topics
courses. 

Although Linguistics has been an interdepartmental program for 20 years and
has offered a BA in Linguistics since 2002, 2019-20 is the inaugural year of
the Linguistics Department. Thus, the position will be one of the first in the
newly-formed department and the candidate will therefore be able to continue
to shape the curriculum, expanding the department’s research and teaching in
novel ways and complementing existing strengths and research interests of
other Linguistics faculty. 

Additional responsibilities include: 
- Standard quarter-system teaching assignment (2-2-2); 
- Exemplary teaching; active program of scholarly activity; 
- Service to the Department through a range of activities. 

The successful candidate will be expected to fulfill teaching and mentoring
responsibilities in ways that provide equitable and inclusive learning
environments for all students and will offer a strong record of
community-engaged scholarship and research ethics.

To apply, please see the application link provided below.
