The Computational Linguistics group at the University of Maryland
seeks an energetic, highly motivated individual for a postdoctoral
position.  We are a strongly interdisciplinary group, with faculty
members from three departments (computer science, linguistics, and
information studies) that work closely together with a team of about
15 research scientists, postdoctoral researchers and graduate
students.  We seek candidates who are comfortable with statistical and
corpus-based natural language processing, knowledge based techniques
(particularly those involving ontologies and lexicons), and/or the
design of information retrieval systems.  Of particular interest are
candidates with interest and expertise in cross-language information
retrieval, machine translation, broad-coverage parsing, use of
comparable and parallel corpora, and development of large-scale
lexicons.  Strong programming skills are essential.

Feel free to contact one of us directly (info below), or send mail
with a c.v. to Edna Walker <edna at cs.umd.edu>.
