Description:

Applications are invited for a Resident Academic full-time post in

Technology of the University of Malta.

The appointment will be on initial definite four-year contract of

Tenure Track process. At the conclusion of this two-year period of
service, the Resident Academic will be subject to a Tenure Review.

Candidates must be in possession of a PhD in Linguistics/Language
Sciences, and have demonstrable expertise in empirical linguistics and
commitment to research that involves linguistic data processing and
statistics from an experimental perspective. Teaching experience at
tertiary level will be considered an asset.

The appointee will be required to contribute to the teaching and
supervision of students, research and administrative duties, as well
as outreach activities as may be required by the Institute and/or the
University. More specifically, s/he will be required to teach courses
in areas which apply quantitative approaches to the study of language
and speech; these include courses on empirical linguistics, linguistic
data processing and statistics, as well as experimental techniques.
Moreover, s/he will be required to contribute to the development of
the research programmes of the Institute and is additionally expected
to be available to offer support to staff and students on matters such
as experimental design, practical aspects in the implementation of an
experiment and data processing and use of appropriate statistical
tests, should the need arise. Good communicative skills, the ability
to work in a team, and a strong willingness to engage in the
Institute’s administrative and outreach activities are also essential.

The Resident Academic Stream is composed of four grades; these being
Professor, Associate Professor, Senior Lecturer and Lecturer. Entry
into the grade of Lecturer or above shall only be open to persons in
possession of a PhD or an equivalent research-based doctorate within
strict guidelines established by the University.

Academic Supplement of €14,932

*The University will only consider appointing an applicant at the
grade of Professor or Associate Professor, when the applicant already
holds an equivalent appointment at a University or Research Institute
of repute.

The University of Malta will provide academic staff with financial
resources through the Academic Resources Fund to support continuous
professional development and to provide the tools and resources
required by an academic to adequately fulfil the teaching and research
commitments within the University.
