Description:

Applications are invited for a Full-Time Resident Academic Post in

available funds, subject to a probationary period of six months.

Candidates must be in possession of (or expect to have completed) a Ph.D. or
equivalent research-based doctorate in Linguistics/Language Sciences, or a
related discipline, with demonstrable expertise in empirical linguistics and
commitment to research that involves linguistic data processing and statistics
from an experimental perspective. Candidates with additional expertise in
corpus linguistics will be given preference. Teaching experience at tertiary

The appointee will be required to contribute to the teaching and supervision
of students, research and administrative duties, as well as outreach
activities as may be required by the Institute and/or the University. More
specifically, s/he will be required to teach courses in areas which apply
quantitative approaches to the study of language and speech; these will
include courses on empirical linguistics, linguistic data processing and
statistics, as well as experimental techniques or corpus development and
management, depending on the appointee’s expertise. Moreover, s/he will be
required to contribute to the development of the research programmes of the
Institute and is additionally expected to be available to offer support to
staff and students on matters such as experimental design, practical aspects
in the implementation of an experiment and data processing and use of
appropriate statistical tests, should the need arise. Good communicative
skills, the ability to work in a team, and a strong willingness to engage in
the Institute’s administrative and outreach activities are also essential.
