Description:

The School of Humanities and Media Studies is looking to recruit a Senior
Lecturer in English, Specialisation Linguistics, to join its English
Department. Dalarna University has twelve language departments that teach most
of their courses online, net-based teaching being a feature of the University
for which it is nationally recognised. Broad in scope, the English Department
offers Master’s programmes in linguistics and literary studies; teacher
education programmes at all levels; courses in English for Specific Purposes;
and preparatory academic courses. It also offers a large number of
free-standing courses. The English Department is active and dynamic within
research in the areas of linguistics, literature and didactics. Now, as a
result of its popular and relatively new Master’s Programme in Applied
Linguistics, there is a need to expand on departmental expertise through the
recruitment of a Senior Lecturer.

The skills you bring with you will be important for developments within the
subject in relation to the following:
- Teaching at the undergraduate level in the areas of academic writing,
English linguistics and linguistic methodology
- Supervision and examination of degree projects in English with a
specialisation in linguistics at the Bachelor’s and Master’s levels
- Teaching at the Master’s level in the relevant disciplines of Applied
Linguistics
- Related administrative duties 

It is important that you have expertise that will help develop teaching within
the subject. For example, we currently have a course in the Master’s Programme
that we plan to develop with a suitable specialisation. As well, we have a
great deal of collaboration with external stakeholders through two university
centres: the Centre for Educational Development (PUD) in relation to teacher
education; and Dalarna’s Centre for Intercultural Research and Development
(IKUD), which involves close work with the humanities and social sciences.

Qualifications and Experience:

Procedures for Teachers at Dalarna University, a candidate is deemed qualified

doctoral degree or having equivalent research competence or other professional
skills that are of significance in terms of the subject content for the

Teachers at Dalarna University.

The position requires that you have:
- A doctoral degree in English with a specialisation in linguistics (or
equivalent)
- Documented teaching and supervisory skills in linguistics
- Excellent collaboration skills and are able to take the initiative and be
accountable in your work since there will be a great deal of team work and
contact with external stakeholders

For this position, it is especially desirable that you have:
- A strong background in research witwith specialisation in applied areas of
linguistics
