teaching and research in NLP, specializing in multilingual 
applications of CL, notably Machine Translation and Computer-
Assisted Language Learning.

CCL now has a vacancy for a Lecturer in Computational 
Linguistics. The successful candidate will conduct research in 
any topic relevant to the Centre'’s main research interests, CALL 
and MT. The candidate will also contribute to postgraduate 
teaching on MSc courses in MT and CALL and will be

for someone with a PhD, teaching experience, and plenty of 
ideas for research grant applications. An active research profile 
is essential, and the successful candidate will have a reasonable
