Description:
The Department of Linguistics at the University of British Columbia,
Vancouver, invites applications for a tenure-track position in Phonology to
begin July 1, 2012, with appointment at the rank of Assistant Professor.
The successful candidate should have a primary specialisation in
Phonology. We especially encourage applicants with research expertise in
linguistic fieldwork on less well-studied languages, especially indigenous
languages of the Americas, or languages of Asia or Africa. Candidates
must have a Ph.D. in Linguistics or a closely related field and are expected
to demonstrate a record of or potential for high-quality research and
teaching of a variety of courses at the graduate and undergraduate levels.
The successful candidate will be expected to maintain an active program of
research, teaching (including graduate supervision), and service. The
position is subject to final budgetary approval. Salary will be commensurate
with qualifications and experience.
The Department of Linguistics at the University of British Columbia offers
graduate degree programs in Linguistics and in Cognitive Systems (an
interdisciplinary program involving several other departments) and
undergraduate degree programs in Linguistics, Speech Science, First
Nations Languages & Linguistics, and Cognitive Systems. Research in the
department covers a broad range of subfields in linguistics, and
approaches these from a variety of perspectives, with particular strengths in
formal-theoretical linguistics, experimental and field linguistics, language
acquisition, and computational approaches to the study of communicative
behaviour. The department is a centre for the study of the indigenous
languages of the Americas, with a particular focus on the First Nations
languages of western Canada; there is also a long history of work on
African languages. See the department website
(http://www.linguistics.ubc.ca) for further details.
Please send (electronically or by hardcopy) a letter of application,
curriculum vitae, representative samples of published or unpublished work,
evidence of teaching effectiveness, and any additional supporting
documents to the address below by January 16, 2012. In addition,
applicants should arrange for three confidential letters of recommendation
to be sent separately by the same date (again, electronically or by
hardcopy) to:
