Description:

The Linguistics Department of the University of Massachusetts Amherst invites

Psycholinguistics, starting September 1, 2019. We seek a candidate whose
research interests complement those of the current Linguistics faculty, who
can contribute breadth and depth to the department with respect to research,
teaching, and advising at the graduate and undergraduate levels, and who can
engage with the development of the Cognitive Science Institute, a broad,
interdisciplinary group focused on fostering Cognitive Science research across
the UMass Community
(https://blogs.umass.edu/cogsci/institute/overview-mission/). Highly qualified
candidates at the Assistant Professor level will also receive consideration.
Qualified applicants should have a Ph.D. in Linguistics or a related field
(Psychology, Cognitive Science) by time of appointment. Salary commensurate
with qualifications and experience, and the University offers an attractive
benefits package. 

Application Instructions:
To apply, please submit a letter of application, statement of research and
teaching interests, curriculum vitae, copies of research papers, evidence of
teaching ability, and a list of three current referees with full contact
information including valid email addresses to the application link below.

Applicants should apply by the priority deadline of November 21, 2018 in order
to ensure consideration, but review of applications will continue until the
position is filled.

The university is committed to active recruitment of a diverse faculty and
student body. The University of Massachusetts Amherst is an Affirmative
Action/Equal Opportunity Employer of women, minorities, protected veterans,
and individuals with disabilities and encourages applications from these and
other protected group members. Because broad diversity is essential to an
inclusive climate and critical to the University's goals of achieving
excellence in all areas, we will holistically assess the many qualifications
of each applicant and favorably consider an individual's record working with
students and colleagues with broadly diverse perspectives, experiences, and
backgrounds in educational, research or other work activities. We will also
favorably consider experience overcoming or helping others overcome barriers
to an academic degree and career.
