Description:

The Faculty of Linguistics and Literary Studies at Bielefeld University is
seeking to fill a vacancy of a W2 Professorship with tenure track / W3
Professorship in Computational Linguistics at the earliest possible
opportunity.

The successful applicant is familiar with current theories and methods of
computational linguistics and covers a broad range of topics in their research
and teaching. One research focus will be on modelling of dialogues. At least
one additional research focus in the area of, e.g., text generation and text
parsing, multilingualism, language variation and language evolution, or
computational semantics is expected. 

We expect documented experience of collaborative research projects and of
acquiring project grants. The successful candidate is willing and able to join
faculty- and university-wide collaborations. Also expected is a willingness to
work on data from natural settings. The successful candidate cooperates on
joint research projects in which the Bielefeld Linguistics Group is currently
involved (e.g., the Cluster of Excellence Cognitive Interaction Technology,
the research network Dialogue Structures as well as new research initiatives).

The successful applicant has comprehensive, suitable teaching experience and
will be  responsible for teaching and supervision of students from the
linguistics bachelors, masters, and doctoral degree programs as well as the
masters program of interdisciplinary media studies (Interdisziplinäre
Medienwissenschaft), including courses on text technology. We also expect a
willingness and ability to teach in English and German. 

Preconditions for the professorship are a university degree in a relevant
field, pedagogical aptitude, a doctorate, and further academic achievements.
These will be evaluated exclusively and comprehensively in the appointment
procedure (§ 36 Higher Education Act [HG]).
