Subject: Syntax: Tenure Track Position in Syntax, University of Florida


University or Organization: University of Florida
Department: Linguistics
Job Location: Florida, USA
Web Address: https://lin.ufl.edu/
Job Title: Tenure Track Position in Syntax
Job Rank: Assistant Professor

Specialty Areas: Syntax; Morphology; Computational Linguistics

Description:

The Department of Linguistics at the University of Florida invites
applications for a tenure-track appointment in syntax at the rank of
Assistant Professor, beginning August 16, 2024. This is a full-time,
nine-month, tenure-accruing position. Candidates should have an active
research agenda in syntax and/or morphology, studying syntactic and
morphological structures in the languages of the world. We
particularly welcome applicants who can also contribute to our
departmental focus on computational language science. Ability to teach
a variety of syntax courses is required.

UF has recently committed to a university-wide artificial intelligence
initiative along with a major super-computing collaboration with
NVIDIA (ai.ufl.edu). Thus, we particularly encourage applications from
candidates whose research explores syntactic and morphological theory
in ways that intersect with current research in computational language
science.

The successful candidate will be expected to 1) maintain an active
research agenda, 2) pursue external research funding, 3) teach two
courses per semester at the undergraduate and/or graduate level, 4)
provide service to the department, the university, and the profession.
It is also desirable for the candidate to contribute to UF’s
university-wide Artificial Intelligence initiative to train graduates
for an AI-enabled world (ai.ufl.edu), and seek collaborations within
the department as well as with other units on campus such as the UF
Data Science and Information Technology Center, the Center for Big
Learning, the UF Informatics Institute, or the McKnight Brain
Institute.

The Department of Linguistics at the University of Florida is a
vibrant and congenial unit consisting of 14 full-time faculty and 15
affiliated faculty in the departments of Anthropology; Languages,
Literatures, and Cultures; Spanish and Portuguese Studies; and the
Dial Center for Written & Oral Communication. We offer a B.A., M.A.,
and Ph.D. in Linguistics, as well as an undergraduate minor and
undergraduate certificate in TESL and a graduate certificate in Second
Language Acquisition and Teaching. We have faculty expertise in a wide
range of linguistic subfields, and particular strengths in the areas
of bilingualism, language documentation, psycholinguistics,
computational linguistics, and African linguistics.

More information on the position and instructions on how to apply can
be found at the official job posting below.

The position is open until filled. Review of applications will begin
November 22, 2023.
