advising is encouraged. Salary is competitive, commensurate with
qualifications and experience and includes a full benefits package
(www.hr.ufl.edu/benefits/).

The Linguistics Department at the University of Florida is a vibrant and
congenial unit consisting of 11 full-time faculty and 15 affiliated faculty.
We offer a B.A., M.A. and Ph.D. in Linguistics, as well as an undergraduate
minor and undergraduate certificate in TESL and a graduate certificate in
Second Language Acquisition and Teaching. We have faculty expertise in a wide
range of linguistic subfields, and particular strengths in the areas of
language documentation, psycholinguistics, and African linguistics. Please see
our website, https://lin.ufl.edu/, for more information about the department.

Applications must be submitted online at the application link provided below
and must include:
- A brief cover letter,
- A CV,

After initial review, letters of recommendation will be requested for selected
applicants. Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue
until the position is filled.

All candidates for employment are subject to a pre-employment screening which
includes a review of criminal records, reference checks, and verification of
education. The final candidate will be required to provide an official
transcript to the department upon hire. Degrees earned from an educational
institution outside of the United States require evaluation by a professional
credentialing service provider approved by the National Association of
Credential Evaluation Services (NACES), which can be found at
http://www.naces.org/.

The Department is committed to creating an environment that affirms diversity
and inclusion across a variety of dimensions, including ability, class,
ethnicity/race, religion and/or cultural background, gender identity and
expression. We particularly welcome applicants who can contribute to such an
environment through their scholarship, teaching, mentoring, and professional
service. The university and greater Gainesville community enjoy a diversity of
cultural events, restaurants, year-round outdoor recreational activities, and
social opportunities.

The University of Florida is an equal opportunity institution dedicated to
building a broadly diverse and inclusive faculty and staff. Searches are
conducted in accordance with Florida's Sunshine Law. If an accommodation due
