University or Organization: Massachusetts Institute of Technology 
Department: Linguistics and Philosophy
Job Location: Massachusetts, USA 
Web Address: http://linguistics.mit.edu/
Job Title: Assistant Professor in Linguistics
Job Rank: Assistant Professor

Specialty Areas: Language Acquisition 


Description:

The Department of Linguistics & Philosophy at MIT invites applications for a
tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor level.  The appointment will
be made in the area of Language Acquisition, with a specific interest in
candidates whose research focuses on the nature of linguistic theory from the
perspective of language development.  We particularly seek candidates whose
experimental or computational research on language development interacts
productively with open questions in syntactic theory, but strongly welcome
applicants whose interests span multiple sub-disciplines of linguistics. The
successful applicant will be a leader in MIT’s Language Acquisition lab, but
we also encourage applicants whose research includes a focus on interactions
between linguistic theory and other issues in learning or language processing.

MIT is an equal opportunity employer committed to building a culturally
diverse intellectual community, and strongly encourages applications from
women, minority candidates, veterans and individuals with disability.
