Description:

Carleton University's School of Linguistics and Language Studies 
invites applications for a tenure-track position in Applied Linguistics 
and Discourse Studies at the rank of Assistant Professor, commencing 
July 1, 2013. We are looking for an individual with a specialization in 
the teaching and learning of second/additional languages. 

Desired additional qualifications are the TESL Ontario TESL Trainer 
Certificate of Accreditation, and/or an expertise in CALL, and/or 
teaching experience in and/or relevant scholarship pertaining to one of 
the Modern Languages taught in the School. Applicants should have a 
Ph.D. in Applied Linguistics or related field, a well-defined research 
agenda and an active research profile with a strong commitment to the 
dissemination of scholarship through publication. Applicants must 
also have a demonstrated record of excellence in teaching.  

The successful candidate will be expected to teach to a culturally 
diverse student body in both undergraduate and graduate programs, to 
provide graduate supervision at the MA and PhD levels, to develop a 
program of research leading to significant peer-reviewed publications, 
and to contribute effectively to academic life in the School of 
Linguistics and Language Studies. 

The School's programs in Applied Linguistics and Discourse Studies 
are housed in a large unit representing a rich diversity of perspectives 
on language, with courses in these areas as well as in Linguistics, 
American Sign Language, Arabic, Chinese (Mandarin), German, Italian, 
Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, and less commonly taught 
languages such as Anishinaabemowin, Inuktitut, Ki-Swahili and 
Turkish, 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 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 
an excellent employer, and 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, Ottawa International Airport, and Gatineau Park -- 
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 include a covering letter 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 School Director at the contact info listed below. 
The closing date for receipt of applications, including the letters of 
reference, is October 26, 2012. This position is subject to final budgetary approval.
