Dear everybody,

the deadline for applications concerning the position below has been 
extended to October 7. I am
disseminating this announcement here and now because it may have gone 
unnoticed in
the corpus linguistics community - partly because the job description 
involves a broad range of
disciplines the candidate may be coming from. *However, the call is 
definitely open to
applicants from corpus linguistics **or computational linguistics. *The 
position will be situated
either at the Humanities faculty or the Faculty of Business, Economics & 
Social Sciences,
depending on the background of the successful candidate. Please consider 
applying
if you think you are qualified.
