Description:

The Department of Linguistics and the Cognitive Science Program at
Northwestern University invite applications for a full-time teaching-track
position at the rank of assistant professor of instruction, with a start date
of September 1, 2021. We are looking for candidates with an interdisciplinary
background in the scientific study of language who are committed to building
more diverse, equitable, and inclusive undergraduate programs. The teaching
load for this teaching track faculty position is 6 courses per year on the
quarter system to be distributed across course offerings and
undergraduate-focused administrative assignments in Linguistics and Cognitive
Science.

The assistant professor of instruction will join a vibrant interdisciplinary
community of teacher-scholars from across the cognitive sciences (including
communication sciences, computer science, learning sciences, linguistics,
music cognition, neuroscience, philosophy, and psychology). Although the
duties of this position focus on undergraduate instruction and advising, the
assistant professor of instruction will have access to the research facilities
of the Department of Linguistics.

To receive fullest consideration, applications should arrive by April 15,
2021. Candidates must hold a Ph.D. in Linguistics or a related field (e.g.,
Cognitive Neuroscience, Cognitive Science, Computer Science, Philosophy,
Psychology, Speech and Hearing Sciences) by the start date. Please include: a
CV that includes contact information; a statement of teaching philosophy and
interests; a statement on enhancing diversity, equity, and inclusion in
undergraduate education; teaching evaluations (if available); and the names
and contact information for three references. 

Please visit the application link below for online application instructions.

of Linguistics at the contact information below.
