================================================================  

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

Description:

The English Department at the University of Neuchatel, Switzerland, is
offering a 75% position allowing the successful candidate to work on a

Advanced skills in English are essential and skills in French advantageous. 

To optimise the supervision possibilities, preference will be given to
candidates whose research focuses on one of the following areas:
derivational morphology, the syntax-semantics interface, the syntax or
semantics of the VP or PP. However, applications from candidates interested
in working on other areas are welcome.

Candidates must have a degree entitling them to pursue doctoral studies,
such as the Swiss licence. The degree must involve some kind of
specialisation in linguistics.

In general, applicants must be under 28 years of age on the starting date,
though exceptions may be possible.

The job will take the form of a yearly contract renewable for four years
(exceptionnally five).

The starting date is September 1, 2007.

Women and candidates with disabilities are encouraged to apply.

Please send a letter of application, a CV, a copy of your degree
certificate, an outline (up to three pages) of your research project and
samples of your work to Andrew McIntyre's postal address and (if possible)

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such can 
receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit 
organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be offset against 
your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more 
information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any gift 
you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting your human 
resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills in and returns 
to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure that doubles the 
value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment 
to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
