POSTDOCTORAL TEACHING FELLOW
DEPARTMENT OF LINGUISTICS
UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA

The Department of Linguistics at the University of British Columbia invites 
applications for a possible position for a Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow, 
contingent on funding, to begin 1 July 2010. This position enables innovative 
and collaborative teaching between the Fellow and outstanding UBC 
professors.  This is part of a UBC and Faculty of Arts program to help launch 
the careers of new scholars showing early promise as excellent university 
teachers and researchers. The Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow will have 
opportunities to interact with UBC colleagues on teaching and research, as 
well as to be part of a cohort of early-career scholars sharing methods and 
exchanging ideas for excellent teaching.

One of the Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow positions may be located within the 
UBC Department of Linguistics. As well as its strengths in phonetics, 
phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, first language acquisition, 
psycholinguistics, and field linguistics, the UBC Department of Linguistics 
has a commitment to the theoretically informed study and documentation of 
First Nations (indigenous) languages. (See http://www.linguistics.ubc.ca/). 
Applications from outstanding applicants in any area of specialization in 
linguistics are welcome.

The Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow will be appointed for one year, beginning 
July 1, 2010. Applicants will normally be within 3 years of being awarded the 
PhD. The successful candidate will teach three single-semester 
undergraduate courses per year under the supervision of an experienced 
professor. This position is subject to final budgetary approval. 

Applicants should submit hard copies of a letter of application, a statement of 
teaching philosophy and interests, evidence of teaching potential, a sample 
of written work, and a C.V. to:
