All applicants must have a Ph.D. in Linguistics by contract start date and
proven excellence in teaching in the relevant areas. For the Indo-European

be considered as well.

These positions are subject to budgetary approval and need, and are full-time,
normally at the rank of Lecturer or Assistant Professor beginning August 1,
2020 and ending May 14, 2021. Individuals holding limited-term appointments
may be granted a subsequent appointment, given continued funding and need, as
well as satisfactory job performance. Together, initial appointments and
subsequent appointments may not exceed 36 months or a span of three
consecutive years. 

Applications should be submitted electronically to the email for applications
below on or before April 17, 2020. Submissions should include the following

All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadian and
Permanent Residents will be given priority. To comply with the Government of
Canada’s reporting requirements, the University is obliged to gather
