Description:

The University of Kentucky seeks a linguist with demonstrated research and
teaching expertise in phonetics. Preference will be given to candidates who
can also build on the program’s strengths in sociolinguistics,
corpus/computational linguistics, and historical linguistics; and contribute
to teaching computational and experimental research methods. Rank is at
Assistant Professor level. In exceptional circumstances we will consider an
appointment at a higher rank. 

Teaching responsibilities will be entirely within the University’s
interdepartmental Linguistics Program and will include courses at the
introductory, advanced undergraduate, and graduate levels; maximum teaching
load is two courses per semester. Appointment will be tenure‐line and housed
in the College of Arts & Sciences, initially within the Department of English,
and subsequently in the newly formed Department of Linguistics. Evidence of
successful scholarship and teaching required. Doctorate in Linguistics
required at the time of appointment. Appointment begins August 2015. 

Applications should be submitted through interfolio (link below). Please
submit a letter of application describing research and teaching, C.V., a
single representative research paper, and three letters of recommendation.
Preliminary interviews will be conducted at the LSA Annual Meeting in January.
Finalists who are not attending the LSA meeting may request an interview via
Skype. Review of applications begins November 15. The interfolio site will
close on December 1. Questions should be addressed to the search committee
chair, Dr. Rusty Barrett (email below).

The University of Kentucky’s Linguistics Program is a research‐active
environment with a history of synergy between linguistics and computer
science; existing research groups focus on morphological theory & typology,
sociolinguistics, corpus/computational linguistics, historical linguistics,
and minority languages. 

The University of Kentucky is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity
University that values diversity and is located in an increasingly diverse
geographical region. It is committed to becoming one of the top public
institutions in the country. Women, persons with disabilities, and members of
other underrepresented groups are encouraged to apply. The University also
supports family‐friendly policies.
