 ==========================================================================
The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to use
non-discriminatory standards in hiring policy. In particular we urge
that employers do not discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity,
nationality, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we
have no means of enforcing these standards.

Job seekers should pay special attention to language in ads regarding
employment requirements and are encouraged to consult our international
employment page http://linguistlist.org/jobnet.html.

This page has been set up so that people can report on the employment
standards of various countries.

The Utrecht Institute of Linguistics OTS (http://www-uilots.let.uu.nl) is a
research institute of the Faculty of Arts of Utrecht University, The
Netherlands. About one hundred researchers are involved of which 12 full
professors, 10 postdoctoral researchers and about 30 graduate students.

The goal of UiL OTS is to develop scientific expertise in the area of
language, speech and their use. The research of UiL OTS comprises the
following six areas: Syntax and Semantics,  Morphology & Phonology,
Computational Linguistics & Logic, Phonetics, Language Development, en
Language Use. The research programme of UiL OTS brings together research
from different strands of linguistics and related disciplines such as
logic, computer science, cognitive sciences, teaching, and social sciences.

UiL OTS searches an ambitious and enthusiastic candidate for a position as

 POSTDOCTORAL FELLOW

Start: to be negotiated.  Duration: 2 years.

The project will investigate the nature of the syntactic processes that are
available in natural language to encode interpretative dependencies between
arguments. It will do so by systematically exploring the types of variation
across languages in the domain of anaphoric relations and realising a
typological data base in the area of anaphora. A project proposal is
available on request or can be downloaded from our internet-site:
http://www-uilots.let.uu.nl/general/general.htm, see Vacant Positions.

The candidate should, preferably, combine a solid expertise in current
linguistic theory, more specifically in the area of anaphora, and
experience with cross-linguistic (descriptive) research. Experience
with developing databases will be considered an advantage. The
researcher will participate in an (inter)national project, funded by
the Dutch National Science Foundation, in which an overarching
typological meta-database system is developed that is able to link
separate databases in such a way that one can question a set of
databases. The project proposal will be sent upon request or can be
downloaded from our internet-site.

We offer a stimulating and innovative research environment with many
international contacts, a program which offers possibilities for
collaboration with specialists in a broad area of linguistics, good
experimental facilities, etc. Salary indication max. Dfl. 7618,= per
month (gross).

Further information can be obtained by sending an e-mail with specific
questions to Dr. M. Everaert (everaert at let.uu.nl) (after 23/6),
Prof. dr. E.J.Reuland (reuland at let.uu.nl) or uil-ots at let.uu.nl
(subject: postdoc Typology).

The institute's telephone number is +31-30-2536006.  Applications may
be sent before June 30
	to:
	the Faculteit Letteren, Universiteit Utrecht,
        c/o mr. A.A. van Fulpen, personeelsconsulent,
        Kromme Nieuwegracht 46, 3512 HJ Utrecht, The Netherlands.

Notification of application should be sent by E-mail before June 27 to
uil-ots at let.uu.nl.  Applications should be accompanied by a curriculum
vitae, two letters of recommendation, and a list of publications.
