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

University or Organization: University of Groningen 
Department: Alfa-informatica
Job Location: Groningen, Netherlands 
Web Address: http://www.let.rug.nl/informatiekunde/

Job Rank: Lecturer  

Specialty Areas: Computational Linguistics 

Required Language(s): Dutch (nld)

Description:

Full-time position for two years
Vacancy number: 208018

The department is focused on computational linguistics, especially in
syntactic and phonological processing, and would most like to strenghten
this focus by attracting researchers in computational linguistics with
specializations complementary to those of the current staff, e.g. text
sentiment analysis, historical linguistics, text authoring tools, or
computer-supported language learning. We are willing to consider other,
similar specializations.

The teaching duties will be concentrated on language processing and
statistics. The successful candidate will also be expected to contribute to
research, including grant proposals, and will be asked to assume a share of
organizational tasks, e.g. recruitment, communication or software/hardware
support.

Requirements:

-  A PhD degree in (Computational) Linguistics or a related field such as
Linguistics, Computer Science, or Artificial Intelligence.
-  Proven research ability documented by publications.
-  Proven interest and success in computational and statistical studies is
a must.
-  Ability to work independently and interest in interdisciplinary research.
-  Willingness to learn Dutch and to locate in Groningen.

Your application should include a cover letter, including remarks on how
this position fits in your career goals, a current curriculum vitae
(including a list of publications), a sketch of current research interests
and the name and e-mail addresses of two referees.

When applying for this job always mention the vacancy number 208018.
