[Note: This announcement was originally sent out on September 16; the

The Linguistics Department of the Faculty of Philology is seeking to
fill the
position of W2-Professor of Computational/Experimental Approaches to
Grammar.

The successful candidate will have a research focus on algorithmic
modelling and/or experimental investigation of natural language
processing and will combine this research with excellent expertise in
grammatical theory, in the area of phonology, morphology, or syntax. The
candidate's research output is expected to be highly visible
internationally; success in acquiring third-party funds is desirable. As
part of the responsibilities of the professorship, the selected
candidate will participate in the BA and MA programmes of the
department, and (s)he will contribute to the doctoral programme of the
DFG Research Training Group Interaction of Grammatical Building Blocks
(IGRA). Furthermore, an active participation in cooperative research
projects is expected.

Rights and obligations of the jobholder are within the Saxonian
university law (Sächsisches Hochschulfreiheitsgesetz, SächsHSFG) and the
Saxonian public service task regulation (Sächsische
Dienstaufgabenverordnung, DAVOHS). Applicants must meet the requirements
of § 58 SächsHSFG. (Essentially, this means
(junior/assistant/associate/full) professor status, habilitation, or
comparable scientific work.) The University of Leipzig emphasizes the
equality of women and men. Handicapped applicants are encouraged to
apply and given preference if equally qualified.

Applications with the usual documents, enclosing detailed CV, a list of
the scientific work and academic teaching including available records of
teaching evaluations and a certified copy of the certificate of the
highest acquired academic degree should be sent before November 14, 2015.
