Applications are invited for:
Department of Linguistics and Modern Languages 
Professor / Associate Professor / Assistant Professor 
(Ref: 210002S2) (Closing Date: February 28, 2022)

The Department of Linguistics and Modern Languages is a young and vibrant
Department, devoted to the study of language and mind, with strengths in
theoretical linguistics, language acquisition, bilingualism, sign linguistics
and language disorders. We are seeking a sign linguist. The appointment will
be at the rank of Professor, Associate Professor or Assistant Professor,
depending on the credentials of the candidate.

The Department is particularly interested in applicants whose research has a
strong grounding in linguistic theory and who employ conventional and/or
contemporary research methods to address core issues in the linguistics of
sign languages. Applicants whose research crosses multiple areas of
linguistics and cognate areas are especially welcome.

Applicants should have: 
 - a PhD degree in linguistics or a related field; 
 - a strong commitment to effective teaching; and 
 - a record of excellence in research in the relevant field consistent with
rank and history of employment.

The primary medium of instruction of the Department is English, for both
undergraduate and postgraduate classes. The Department collaborates closely
with other departments and research units across the University, and is
equipped with state-of-the-art research facilities, including sound chambers,
eye trackers, and EEG systems.

The appointee is expected to: 
 - teach undergraduate and postgraduate courses in linguistics and sign
linguistics; 
 - supervise projects and theses of undergraduate, MA, MPhil and PhD students;
 - conduct programmatic research in his/her areas of expertise; and 
 - undertake administrative duties.

Appointment will normally be made on contract basis for up to three years
initially commencing September 2022 or as early as possible, which, subject to
mutual agreement, may lead to longer-term appointment or substantiation later.

Application Procedure: 
The University only accepts and considers applications submitted online for
the post above. For more information and to apply online, please visit the
