Description:

Lund University is announcing a vacancy as full professor of General
Linguistics.

General linguistics at the Centre for Languages and Literature is an active
research environment that conducts research both within the subject and in
collaboration with researchers outside the subject, locally, nationally and
internationally. We hold subject-based seminars and interdisciplinary seminars
and collaborate closely with the Humanities Lab. The objective of general
linguistics at Lund University is to become a leading centre for linguistics
in Scandinavia within ten years, with successful research teams funded by the
Government and large external grants.

The subject aims to further strengthen and develop research on language use,
linguistic variation and typology, language technology, historical
linguistics, language structure and meaning, language learning and
multilingualism, and linguistic representation and processing. The methods
used include fieldwork, corpus analysis, interaction analysis,
psychophysiology, brain imaging and neurophysiology. We are now looking for an
internationally prominent researcher with proven expertise in at least one of
these areas.

The subject offers education in the first, second and third cycles, and we
supervise postdocs in various research projects. We aim to provide students
with a broad education of the highest quality in key areas of general
linguistics: grammar, semantics, phonology, pragmatics, discourse, language
learning, typology and language processing. General linguistics is also a
vital part of the Centre for Language and Literature’s Master’s and PhD
programmes in languages and linguistics. Our courses are popular and open to
all students of linguistics at the Centre for Languages and Literature,
whatever their specialisation.

The position of professor of general linguistics includes: 
 - responsibility for the development of the subject, and for research and
third-cycle education from a national and international perspective; 
 - own research, planning of, participation in and leading of research
projects including national and international applications for research
funding; 
 - teaching, supervision and course development at all levels including
postdoc level; 
 - administrative tasks. In accordance with the applicable agreement on
working hours, the professor must be present at the workplace to the extent
required by the organisation and the work duties.

Applicants who do not speak Swedish, Danish or Norwegian at the time of
employment are expected to have acquired sufficient knowledge to use Swedish
as a working language within two years.

The university applies individual salary setting.

Please apply online through the e-recruitment system (see link below) no later
than the application deadline (15 September 2022, see website). We do not
accept late applications or applications that are not sent through the online
system. 

The application must conform to the instructions that can be downloaded at
