Job announcement: "wissenschaftlicher Assistent": linguistic typology and language documentation

[Johannes Helmbrecht]

Dear Typologists,

at the chair for General and Comparative Linguistics of the University of Regensburg, the position 
of a "wissenschaftlicher Assistent" for linguistic typology and language documentation is open and 
will be filled as soon as possible. This position is the German equivalent to assistant professor, but 
lacks a tenure track. Payment will be according to the German pay scale (A13). The duration is 
maximally six years. However, if the future appointee will complete the Habilitation within this time 
frame, there is a serious chance for another four years employment as "Oberassistent" (A14) 
depending on the financial resources of the University of Regensburg. The PhD degree is required 
before taking up the appointment. 

The main fields of teaching and research of the successful candidate are linguistic typology and 
language documentation. Teaching load is five hours per semester contributing to the BA and MA 
programs "General and Comparative Linguistics" which are planned to be installed in the near 
future. A good working command of German is required. The successful candidate is expected to 
participate in the various administrative tasks of the chair.

Applications (CV, list of publications, list of courses taught and one specimen of a scientific 
publication) should be sent to: 

Prof. Dr. Johannes Helmbrecht
Professur für Allgemeine und Vergleichende Sprachwissenschaft
Universität Regensburg
Institut für Medien-, Informations-, und Kulturwissenschaft (IMIK)
