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

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:

Applications are invited for several Ph.D. positions and Ph.D. scholarships
in experimental phonetics, speech technology and laboratory phonology at
Universität Bielefeld (Fakultät für Linguistik und Literaturwissenschaft),
Germany.
 
Successful candidates should hold a Master's degree (or equivalent) in
phonetics, computational linguistics, linguistics, computer science or a
related discipline. They will have a strong background in either
- speech synthesis and/or recognition
- discourse prosody
- laboratory phonology
- speech and language rhythm research
- multimodal speech (technology)
 
Candidates should appreciate working in an interdisciplinary environment.
Good knowledge in experimental design techniques and programming skills
will be considered a plus. Strong interest in research and high proficiency
in English is required.
 
The Ph.D. positions will be part-time (50%); salary and social benefits are
determined by the German public service pay scale (TVL-E13). The Ph.D.
scholarship is based on the DFG scale. There is no mandatory teaching load.
 
Bielefeld University is an equal opportunity employer. Women are therefore
particularly encouraged to apply. Disabled applicants with equivalent
qualification will be treated preferentially.
 
The positions are available for three years (with a potential extension for
the Ph.D. positions), starting as soon as possible. Please submit your
documents (cover letter, CV including list of publications, statement of
research interests, names of two referees) electronically to the address
indicated below. Applications must be received by June 15, 2009.
