The successful applicant will have a strong background in linguistic theory

budgetary approval and need, and is full-time, normally at the rank of
Lecturer or Assistant Professor beginning August 1, 2021 and ending May 14,
2022. Individuals holding limited-term appointments may be granted a
subsequent appointment, given continued funding and need, as well as
satisfactory job performance. Together, initial appointments and subsequent
appointments may not exceed 36 months or a span of three consecutive years.

Concordia University is strongly committed to building a diverse, equitable,
and inclusive community, and recognizes the importance of inclusion in
achieving excellence in teaching and research.  We require all applicants to
articulate in their cover letter how their background, as well as lived and
professional experiences and expertise have prepared them to teach in ways
that are relevant for a diverse, multicultural contemporary Canadian society. 
Candidates who wish to self-identify as a member of an underrepresented group
to the hiring committee may do so in their cover letter or by writing directly
to the contact person indicated in this posting.

Concordia University is strongly committed to employment equity within its

All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however Canadians and
Permanent Residents will be given priority. To comply with the Government of
Canada’s reporting requirements, the University is obliged to gather
