Description:

ILN is one of seven departments at the Faculty of Humanities (HF). The
department faculty does research, teaching, and outreach within areas
compromising general linguistics, multilingualism, medieval studies (Old Norse
philology and Celtic studies), Scandinavian literature (including literature
mediation and Ibsen studies), Scandinavian linguistics (including Norwegian as
a second language), and rhetoric studies.

Scandinavian Linguistics at ILN includes the area Norwegian as a Second
Language (NOAS). Candidates need to demonstrate experience in research and
teaching within both areas, but experience in NOAS will be given more weight.
Since many of our students are in the Teacher Education Program at the
University of Oslo, this job announcement is directed in particular towards
candidates with competence and experience relevant to the Teacher Education
Program.

The successful candidate is expected to initiate and lead research, supervise
PhD candidates, participate in teaching and in exam setting and assessment at
all levels, and to carry out administrative duties in accordance with the
needs of the Department. More specifically, the successful candidate is
expected to teach and advise students in Norwegian as a Second Language and
Scandinavian Linguistics, and to express themselves and give feedback in both
Nynorsk and Bokmål. Candidates must therefore be highly competent in the
Norwegian language, i.e. be able to use Norwegian both orally and in writing
(Nynorsk and Bokmål) well enough to participate fully in all functions
included in the position, and this includes the teacher education. The
successful candidate should demonstrate that they have the necessary skills
and competence to improve the quality of the teacher education at the
Department by improving the collaboration among the school subjects at HF and
the collaboration between these subjects and the Department of Teacher
Education and School Research. The successful candidate should preferably
contribute to the improvement of the quality of the education and by doing
research relevant to the school, such that students at the Teacher Education
Program in Scandinavian Studies are able to graduate with sufficient knowledge
of the field and awareness of the relevance of the field for school.
