University or Organization: University of Stuttgart 
Department: Institute for Natural Language Processing
Job Location: Stuttgart, Germany 
Web Address: http://www.ims.uni-stuttgart.de/
Job Title: Junior Professor of Computational Linguistics

Description:

The Institute for Natural Language Processing (IMS) at Faculty 5 (Computer
Science, Electrical Engineering and Information Technology) of the University
of Stuttgart is seeking to fill the position of a Junior Professor of
Computational Linguistics (W1-level).

The successful applicant has a convincing research profile in Computational
Linguistics and its current methods, e.g., Machine Learning, which matches the
institute in a complementary way
(http://www.ims.uni-stuttgart.de/institut/arbeitsgruppen/). 

Candidates are expected to show potential for the acquisition of third-party
funding and to be ready for interdisciplinary collaborations (Computer
Science, Computational Linguistics, Linguistics, Digital Humanities), in
particular with SFB 732 “Incremental Specification in Context”. Experience
with the modeling of linguistic data and processes across levels and/or across
tasks is desirable (for example Prosody and Syntax, Machine Translation and
Information Retrieval, Discourse and Dialogue Understanding, Multimodal
grounding of meaning). 

In teaching, the successful candidate will contribute to the institute’s
programs of study, according to the regulations for the teaching load in the
federal state of Baden-Württemberg. Some of the teaching is to be held in
English.

Appointments are subject to the terms and conditions of § 51
Landeshochschulgesetz Baden-Württemberg (State law on universities in the
state of Baden-Württemberg) for ‘Juniorprofessor’ positions.

The University of Stuttgart wishes to increase the proportion of women in
science and is therefore particularly interested in applications from women.
Severely challenged people will be given preference if equally qualified.

The University of Stuttgart has a Dual Career program to support the appointed
person's spouse. See http://www.uni-stuttgart.de/dual-career/

Applications should preferably be in electronic form and include the usual
documents (vita; copies of certificates; list of publications, taught courses
and past grant acquisition; statement of research interests) and three
relevant publications.

Application Deadline: 15-Dec-2014
