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.

Description:

Applications are invited for a fixed term Research Associate (RAIA)
post in syntactic theory, for appointment from 1st February 2004 to 31
December 2005, in the Department of Computer Science, King's College
London.  Closing date for applications is 8th January 2004, with
interviews for the post to be held as soon as possible thereafter.

The successful applicant will participate in a newly funded
collaborative AHRB-funded project on ''Noun Phrase Agreement and
Coordination'' directed by Dr. Louisa Sadler (at the University of
Essex) and Dr. Mary Dalrymple (at King's College, London).  The
project will conduct a number of empirical studies of the interaction
of coordination and agreement (inside and outside the NP), and on the
basis of these empirical studies will develop a formal theory of
agreement within the framework of Lexical Functional Grammar.

Candidates should have:
 - a good honours degree in linguistics or a related discipline
 - a postgraduate research degree or experience working as a
   researcher
 - familiarity with constraint-based linguistic formalisms (especially
   LFG or HPSG)
