The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to engage in non-discriminatory 
hiring practices. We urge employers not to discriminate on the grounds of race, 
ethnicity, nationality, disability, 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.

University or Organization: Carleton University 
Department: School of Linguistics and Language Studies
Job Location: Ottawa, Ontario, Canada 
Web Address: http://www.carleton.ca/slals/
Job Rank: Instructor  

Specialty Areas: General Linguistics; Phonetics; Semantics 

Description:

The School of Linguistics and Language Studies invites applications for a
one-year term position in Linguistics at the rank of Instructor, commencing
July 1, 2011. Candidates should have a Ph.D. in Linguistics, with a
specialization in one of the core areas (phonetics, phonology, morphology,
syntax, or semantics), and a demonstrated enthusiasm for, and excellence
in, undergraduate teaching. The successful candidate will be expected to
teach undergraduate courses to a culturally diverse student body. This is a
teaching position with a load of seven courses over Fall 2011 and Winter
2012 terms, with a possibility of one of the seven courses being scheduled
for the Spring 2012 term (May-June), subject to preferences of the
successful candidate and the needs of the School. Courses might include
introductory linguistics, linguistic analysis, phonetics and semantics,
with some repetition possible to minimize course preparation. Basic course
descriptions are available at
http://www.carleton.ca/calendars/ugrad/current/courses/LING/. 

The School's B.A. program in Linguistics, which provides students with a
strong formal background, is housed in a unit representing a rich diversity
of perspectives on language, with courses in Linguistics, Applied
Linguistics & Discourse Studies, Arabic, American Sign Language, Chinese
(Mandarin), German, Italian, Japanese, Russian and Spanish, as well as
Communication Courses for Disciplines and Professions, and courses in
English as a Second Language for international students, immigrants and
refugees. Detailed information on the School and our programs can be found
at http://www.carleton.ca/slals/. 

All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply, but in accordance with
Canadian immigration requirements, applications from Canadians and
permanent residents will be given priority. Carleton University is strongly
committed to fostering diversity within its community as a source of
excellence, cultural enrichment and social strength. We welcome those who
would contribute to the further diversification of our faculty and its
scholarship, including but not limited to women, visible minorities,
Aboriginal peoples, persons with disabilities, and persons of any sexual
orientation or gender identity. 

Carleton University is located on a beautiful campus in the central portion
of Ottawa, bounded by the Rideau River on one side, and the Rideau Canal on
the other. Its prime location - minutes from downtown, an international
airport, and the Gatineau Hills - enhances quality of life, and allows for
recreational opportunities for individuals and families. With a population
of almost one million, the city of Ottawa is Canada's capital and reflects
the country's bilingual and multicultural character. Applications should be
submitted to Professor Lynne Young at the mailing address or email address
below. Letters of application should be accompanied by a curriculum vitae
as well as a concise dossier that includes written evidence of teaching
effectiveness. Three letters of reference should be sent directly to the
Acting Director. The closing date for receipt of applications, including
the letters of reference, is May 30, 2011. This position is subject to
final budgetary approval.
