Description:

The Linguistics Department at the University of Maryland, College Park invites
applications for 3 tenure track assistant professor positions with anticipated
starting dates of August 2023. Applicants for these positions should already
have a PhD (Linguistics, Cognitive Science, or allied fields) or expect to
have one by August 2023 and should be prepared to teach courses at both the
undergraduate and graduate levels. 

We seek to make three hires distributed across the domains of linguistic
theory (syntax, meaning, and sound/sign). Candidates may use diverse
methodologies for addressing research questions including: formal theory
construction, language description and analysis, fieldwork, psycholinguistics,
neurolinguistics, language acquisition, computational modeling. Candidates
will have the opportunity to interface with one or more other university
strengths in infant studies, computation, neuroscience, philosophy and the
language sciences. Candidates with a strong research program in the cognitive
neuroscience of language will be considered for a joint appointment with the
Brain and Behavior Institute (BBI).

Inquiries about the positions should be directed to Prof. Jeffrey Lidz, (see
email address below). Applications for the positions must be made online
through ejobs.umd.edu and must include a cover letter, a current CV, research,
teaching and contributions to diversity statements, samples of written work,
teaching evaluations (if available) and the names of three or four references.

We seek candidates whose research, teaching, and service have prepared them to
contribute to diversity and inclusion. Applicants are asked to summarize their
leadership efforts, and past or potential contributions to diversity in their
Statement of Contributions to Diversity. Contributions might include
leadership in teaching, mentoring, research or service towards building an
equitable and diverse scholarly environment and/or increasing access or
participation of individuals from historically underrepresented groups.

For best consideration applications should be made by Dec. 1, 2022. These
searches are contingent upon the availability of funds.

The University of Maryland, College Park is the flagship institution in the
University System of Maryland, and is located just outside Washington D.C. The
University of Maryland is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Minorities and women
are encouraged to apply.
