[Corpora-List] PhD and Post Doc Position in NLU and Dialog

[Dietrich Klakow]

=======================================================
                Two positions in the area 
 natural language understanding and human machine dialog
                at Saarland University 
=======================================================

We anticipate the availability for two positions in the area
of natural language understanding and dialog modeling,
one position for a PhD student and a second position
for a postdoctoral researcher or an equivalently qualified
senior researcher.

The task is to conduct research in cross-domain natural
language understanding as well as generic dialog
modeling combining rule-based and statistical
techniques. The successful candidate should have a
degree in computer science, computational linguistics
or a discipline with a related background. Excellent
programming skills are important. A good math background
is a plus. Very good oral and written communication skills 
in English are also required. The research will be carried
out together with a European consortium of high-profile
research institutes and companies.

Saarland University is one of the leading European research 
sites in computational linguistics and offers an active, 
stimulating research environment. Close working relationships 
are maintained between the Departments of Computational 
Linguistics and Computer Science. Both are part of the Cluster 
of Excellence, which also includes the Max Planck Institutes 
for Informatics (MPI-INF) and Software Systems (MPI-SWS) and 
the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI).

Both positions are fully funded positions with a salary
in the range of 37,000 Euros to 51,000 Euros per year 
depending on the qualification and professional experience 
of the successful candidates. Starting date is 
November 1st. The positions are for three years.

Each application should include:

* Curriculum Vitae including a list of publications
  (if applicable)

  page)
