Description:

At the University of Greifswald’s Department of British and North American

The position on offer is limited to a period of 24 months and is suitable for

The fixed-term employment is contracted without a factual reason, according to

Applicants who have previously been employed in a fixed-term or permanent work
relationship with the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern as an employer (in an
office of the state) cannot be included in the selection process. In case of
an existing employment with the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, the
possibility of a secondment to the University of Greifswald, for the period
mentioned above, can be considered. In the case of applications from a
permanent employment at the University of Greifswald, the transfer of tasks
shall be realised by temporary transposition.

Payment will be made according to pay group 13 TV-L Wissenschaft.

The Department of British and North American Studies at Greifswald University
offers rich perspectives in research and teaching. It offers a broad range of
study programs (B.A. English Studies; teacher training courses;
interdisciplinary M.A. programs). The Chair of English Linguistics has a
strong focus on language as a social practice.

Job description:
- Academic teaching in English Linguistics, including a focus on gender
(sociolinguistics, discourse analysis, pragmatics) as well as basic courses
- Preparing, administering and grading exams in all study programs offered at
the department
- Supporting general organizational duties of the Chair of English Linguistics
- Participating in sociolinguistic research

2.5, German grading scale)
- Documented teaching experience in English Linguistics
- Documented teaching or research experience in the area language and gender
- Excellent English skills (C2)
- Very good German skills (B2 or higher)

Preferred:
- Research interest in sociolinguistics, discourse analysis or pragmatics
- Teaching or research experience in the area of digital linguistic practice
- Completed PhD

The position is open to all persons, irrespective of gender. The University
would like to increase the proportion of women in areas in which they are
underrepresented and thus applications from women are particularly welcome and
will be treated with priority if they have the same qualifications and as long
as there are no clear reasons which make a fellow applicant more suitable.
Severely disabled applicants with the same qualifications will be considered
with preference.

In accordance with § 68(3) PersVG M-V, the Staff Council will only be involved
in staff matters of the academic or artistic staff on request.

Please only submit copies of your application documents as they cannot be
returned.

Unfortunately, the application costs (e.g. travel expenses for interviews)
will not be reimbursed by the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

Applications comprising all usual documents should be sent with reference to
the job advertisement number 21/Si25 by 12 July 2021, in electronic form (one
PDF file) by email to the application email provided below.
