Description:

This is a regular faculty appointment in the area of Translation
Studies and English Language. Duties include research and knowledge
transfer, teaching, and administrative service. We encourage
applications from outstanding scientists working in the area of
Translation Studies and English Language.

Research profile:
- technological applications and innovation for language learning and
translator training, including but not limited to resources and
applications for classroom use, corpora resources, writing assistants,
intelligent tutoring systems, digital dictionaries and/or educational
data mining;
- communicative skills for transferring research outcomes to the
academic community as well as society at large

While pursuing their own research agenda, the candidate is expected to
strengthen the Department’s research priorities and to be able to
engage in interdisciplinary collaboration with research groups in the
Department and, more broadly, the Catalan research ecosystem. They
should have a clear vision on how to apply for funding, with an
ambitious but realistic plan for the next five years.

Priority will be given to candidates who provide evidence of capacity
for cutting-edge research and use of state-of-the-art methods,
independent of the total number of years of experience and/or current
position. Merits will be assessed in proportion to the number of years
since the start of the PhD.

Teaching: The appointee will teach between 120 and up to 180 classroom
hours annually in undergraduate and graduate courses, including final
project supervision (undergraduate, master’s and PhD dissertations).
Specifically, they will be expected to coordinate teams of co-teachers
as well as teach in the module of Writing and Translation from
Spanish/Catalan into English in the BA degrees offered by the School
of Translation and Language Sciences. In addition, they will be able
to teach in other areas including “English Language”, “English
Descriptive Grammar”, “Translation Technologies” and “Language
Technologies”, both at the BA and Master’s level (in UPF’s Master’s in
Translation Studies and Master’s in Theoretical and Applied
Linguistics).

Department offer:
The standard duration of the contract is 5 years; during the 4th year
the Tenure-track lecturer will undergo performance evaluation in all
areas, including their commitment to the Department’s goals and needs.
If performance evaluation is successful, the University will issue a
call for a permanent, tenured position.

Qualifications:
Education: Applicants must hold a PhD at the time of application.

Research: candidates must have demonstrated an ability to conduct
outstanding research with publications at an international level.

Teaching: Applicants must demonstrate capacity to teach at higher
education levels, evidence of pedagogical skills, and a keen interest
in teaching innovation. Native or near-native proficiency in spoken
and written English, proficiency in written Spanish and Catalan is
expected, as is adaptability to teaching in various thematic areas.

Language requirement: Applicants must be able to interact in either
Spanish or Catalan with university staff and undergraduate students.
New faculty are expected to attain a C1 level in Catalan (Common
European Framework of Reference) within two-years of being hired.
