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

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:

Professorship (W2) in Computational Psycholinguistics

The Linguistics Department of the University of Bochum
(Sprachwissenschaftliches Institut) invites applications for a position of
a Full Professorship (W2) in Computational Psycholinguistics.  

Applicants should be actively engaged in experimental research involving
methods such as eye-tracking and event-related potentials. In addition,
they should have considerable experience in computational modeling of
aspects of human language processing as, e.g., spoken word recognition,
syntactic processing, or discourse 
comprehension. These experiences involve the application of cognitive
architectures and/or probabilistic processing and corpus-based methods.

The ideal candidate would have a proven record of international
cooperations, extensive experience in developing research programs, and an
excellent record 
of obtaining research grants. In addition, required is an ability to teach
high-quality courses within the BA/MA program in Linguistics and
Computational Linguistics, covering topics such as experimental techniques,
statistical foundations, and computational modeling. A good working
knowledge of German is desirable but not required. Also expected is close
cooperation with other researchers of the Faculty 
of Philology, particularly with linguists, and with researchers in adjacent
departments such as Psychology and Philosophy.

Please submit your formal application in writing to Dekanin der Fakultät
für Philologie, Prof. Dr. Kornelia Freitag at the address given below.

Informal inquiries may be made to Prof. Dr. Ralf Klabunde.
