The Department of Linguistics at the University of Kansas invites applications

Visiting Assistant Professor position to begin as early as August 18, 2022.
Applicants should have a Ph.D. in Linguistics or a closely related field with
a specialization in Psycholinguistics (expected by the start date of the

preferred, but the position is also open to candidates who focus on
psycholinguistic research in other areas such as morphology and syntax.
Expertise in an additional area such as neurolinguistics, language
acquisition, or sociolinguistics is preferred. The successful candidate should
demonstrate excellence in teaching and a strong record of research in
psycholinguistics. The teaching load is three courses in the fall and three
courses in the spring, including introductory courses in linguistics and more
specialized courses in Psycholinguistics.

KU actively encourages applications from members of underrepresented groups in
higher education. The successful candidate must be eligible to work in the
U.S. by the time of appointment.

The University of Kansas is located in the beautiful, historic, and culturally
vibrant city of Lawrence, a thriving community 40 minutes from the Kansas City
metropolitan area and 30 minutes from the state capital, Topeka. Lawrence, a
progressive college town of 95,000, boasts a lively downtown with many music
venues, award-winning restaurants, and a nationally celebrated independent
bookstore among its many independently owned small businesses. The College of
Liberal Arts and Sciences is the largest school within the campus and plays a
central role within the University. Founded in 1865, KU is a designated
Carnegie comprehensive doctoral and research university and is one of only 34
public members of the prestigious Association of American Universities (AAU).
The University enrolls more than 28,000 students and offers students and
faculty opportunities to collaborate in its graduate and professional
programs, which include education, public health, medicine, law, and allied
social science and humanities disciplines.

Job Duties:
 - Teaching/advising (60%): Advise and mentor graduate students in Linguistics
and serve on advising committees. Teach three courses in the fall and three
courses in the spring, including introductory courses in linguistics,
undergraduate and graduate courses in psycholinguistics, and advanced seminars
or other courses in research areas appropriate to the candidate’s
qualifications.
 - Research (20%): Establish and maintain an active and productive program of
research within area of specialization.
 - Service (20%): Participate in departmental events and actively contribute
to the workings of the University community.

Required Qualifications:
 - Ph.D. in Linguistics or closely related field (expected by the start date
of the appointment), with a specialization in Psycholinguistics.
 - Potential for high quality teaching and commitment to teaching excellence
at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
 - Strong record of research in psycholinguistics.
