Description:

Two positions in Hispanic Linguistics (open rank)

The Department of Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese at The 
Pennsylvania State University invites applications for up to two 
tenure-line positions in Hispanic linguistics (area focus open) 
to begin in August, 2009. These positions can be filled at the 
Assistant, Associate, or recently promoted full Professor rank.

The ideal candidates should conduct research that will add to the 
Department's significant presence in and contribution to Penn 
State's Center for Language Science (http://lsrg.psu.edu/), a 
highly interdisciplinary and collaborative group of researchers 
who share common interests in language acquisition, language 
processing, language contact, and an array of issues pertaining 
to bi- and multi-lingualism. Candidates should possess native or 
near native fluency in Spanish, as well as a PhD in Hispanic 
Linguistics, Linguistics, Second Language Acquisition, 
Psycholinguistics, Cognitive Neuroscience, or a related field.

Candidates at the Assistant Professor level should show clear 
evidence of scholarly potential and teaching excellence.
Candidates at the Associate Professor and full Professor level 
should show evidence of an outstanding record of conducting and 
directing linguistics research, as well as strong teaching and 
mentoring credentials.
For all candidates, a strong record of experimental research, 
either in the laboratory or in the field, is highly desirable. 
The successful candidates will also have the opportunity to be 
affiliated with Penn State's Program in Linguistics and to teach 
graduate and undergraduate courses in both Spanish and Linguistics.

Applications received on or before October 31, 2008 will be 
guaranteed full review. Any applications received after this date 
may be considered if the position is not filled. Electronic 
applications are strongly preferred and can be sent to the email 
address below.
Applications should include a letter of interest describing 
qualifications and potential fit with the Department, a current 
vita, three letters of reference, evidence of teaching 
effectiveness, and a representative sample of recent publications.
If you cannot send your application electronically, please mail 
it to the address provided below.
