Specialty Areas: Cognitive Science; Computational Linguistics; Phonetics; Phonology 


Description:

The Department of Linguistics at the University of Potsdam invites
applications for one Postdoc position. Candidates should seek to address
problems in Phonetics-Phonology using an integrative approach, by employing
combinations of theoretical, computational/mathematical and experimental
methods. Current areas of research include the relation between discrete
phonological organization and correlates in the continuous phonetic signal,
and models of phonetic and phonological phenomena using tools and concepts
from non-linear dynamics. 

Prior research experience in the are of phonology-phonetics is a must, but
field of past degrees or specialization is not in itself critical. Candidates
with an unconventional training background are welcome. 

Responsibilities include: 
- original research in phonology-phonetics;
- assisting with design and execution of experiments; 
- data analysis; 
- participating in writing of papers as part of the research team; 
- participating in writing of grants towards the eventual goal of independent
funding.

The deadline for the application is June 12, 2018; the recruitment process
will continue until the position is filled. International applicants are
welcome. Applications should be submitted in the form of a CV, the names and
contact information of at least two references, academic transcripts or their
equivalent, a sample of research work, and a brief letter of application (a
single document with the above parts is preferred). Submission is via email to
the address below. 

The Postdoc position should begin by September 2018 (a PhD is required). The
term of the appointment is for one year initially, which can be extended for a
second year contingent on performance and continued funding. Salary and
benefits are determined by the German pay scale for state employees. The pay
scale, with monthly gross income in Euro, is available at
http://oeffentlicher-dienst.info/tv-l/ost/ - known as TV-L Band 13 with the
specific salary level within this Band depending on prior experience. The
University of Potsdam is an equal opportunity employer.
