Subject: Computational Linguistics: Assistant Professor, Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, USA

 University or Organization: Dartmouth College 
Department: Linguistics
Job Location: New Hampshire, USA 
Web Address: http://linguistics.dartmouth.edu/
Job Title: Computational Linguistics
Job Rank: Assistant Professor

Specialty Areas: Computational Linguistics 


Description:

The Program in Linguistics at Dartmouth College invites applications for a
tenure-track position in Computational Linguistics at the level of Assistant
Professor to begin on July 1, 2017.  A Ph.D. is preferred, though
consideration will be given to ABD candidates who are close to completing
their doctorates. The successful applicant will be trained in both linguistics
and computer science, including advanced programming skills and experience in
computational linguistic research, able to teach both introductory and
advanced Comp Ling courses, and able to apply computational methods in a range
of linguistics research areas. Consistent with the profile of the Dartmouth
Linguistics Program, experience in the use of computational methods and
applications to facilitate field linguistics or the understanding of
lesser-studied languages is also highly desirable.  The position involves
teaching a range of courses in linguistics, including in areas outside of
one’s specialization, advising undergraduate theses and other research
activities.  

Dartmouth’s Program in Linguistics has five tenure-track faculty members with
a variety of research interests. The Program has on-going collaborations with
many academic units on campus including Native American Studies, Cognitive
Science, Environmental Studies and Anthropology. More information can be found
at: http://linguistics.dartmouth.edu/. 

Dartmouth College combines a commitment to innovative scholarship with
dedication to excellent teaching. The Dartmouth student body is diverse by
many measures. We are especially interested in applicants with a record of
successful teaching and mentoring of students from all backgrounds (including
first-generation college students, low-income students, racial and ethnic
minorities, women, LGBTQ, etc.).  The successful candidate will have the
opportunity to contribute to Dartmouth’s undergraduate diversity initiatives
in research, such as the Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellowship,  Women in
Science Program, E. E. Just STEM Scholars Program, and Academic Summer
Undergraduate Research Experience (ASURE).

Review of applications will begin on 8 November 2016 and will continue until
the position is filled. Applicants should submit a letter of application, a
current CV, and three letters of reference at the link below. Selected
applicants will be invited for interviews at the Linguistic Society of
America’s Annual Meeting in Austin in January or by Skype for those unable to
attend the conference.



Application Deadline: 01-Apr-2017 (Open until filled)
