Description:

The Department of Linguistics at Rice University (Houston, Texas) is now
accepting applications for a lecturer position to begin August 1, 2018. The
candidate should have research expertise related to speech perception,
experimental phonetics, and/or laboratory phonology, with broader relevance to
the cognitive sciences. Experience recording and analyzing language-in-use in
local speech communities (either underdocumented/endangered languages, or
minority varieties of English) is also desirable. This is a one-year
appointment with strong possibility of renewal contingent on performance.

The successful applicant will be asked to teach two undergraduate courses per
semester, including our large Introduction to Linguistics course, courses in
Phonetics/Phonology, and a course related to empirical research or
computational modeling. S/he will also be expected to participate in
departmental activities and contribute to the mentoring of undergraduate
students in the Linguistics Department and/or the Cognitive Science Program.

We especially welcome applications from researchers who share the department’s
interest in approaching language from a usage-based perspective with solid
empirical grounding in primary data, and approaches of a cognitive,
social-interactional, and/or functional nature. See also our department
website at http://www.linguistics.rice.edu

The deadline for receipt of applications is May 24th, 2018.  PhD is required
by time of appointment.

Application materials include: (1) cover letter, (2) CV, (3) teaching
statement, (4) sample of written work, and (5) names and contact information
for three references, who will be contacted for short-listed applicants. Past
teaching evaluations and/or information about course topics the applicant
could teach are also welcome but not required at this time.
