Description:

The Department of Linguistics of the University at Buffalo invites
applications for a one-year Visiting Assistant Professor (10-month) position
with a start date of August 2018. The visiting faculty member will be expected
to teach courses in Computational Linguistics and participate in the
supervision of student research. 

We anticipate conducting a search for a tenure-track position in this area
next year with a start date of August 2019.

Duties and Responsibilities include:
- Teach two courses per semester, graduate or undergraduate, in any or all of
the following areas (including the possibility of self-designed courses):
Computational Linguistics, Corpus Linguistics, Computational/Experimental
Psycholinguistics, Cognitive Science, and NLP;
- Advise students in the Computational Linguistics program, a joint program
between the Department of Linguistics and the Department of Computer Science
and Engineering.

The Department of Linguistics at the University at Buffalo has a tradition of
research on diverse languages and approaches to linguistics, with a strong
focus on syntactic and semantic typology, construction-based grammar,
psycholinguistics, and linguistic fieldwork. The ideal candidate will have
research interests that complement those of members from the Departments of
Linguistics, Computer Science and Engineering, Psychology, or Communicative
Disorder Sciences. The university provides access to supercomputing
infrastructure via the Center for Computational Research.

UB is an AA/EOE and welcomes all to apply including veterans and individuals
with disabilities.

Minimum Qualifications: 
- PhD in Computational Linguistics, Computer Science, Linguistics, or an
allied field of the language sciences (in hand prior to appointment). 
- Demonstrated research in current approaches to Computational Linguistics.

Review of applications will begin on April 27th, 2018 and will continue until
the position is filled. All application materials should be submitted via UB
