Description:

The University of Macau (UM) is an internationalized public

The Department of English of the Faculty of Arts and Humanities (FAH)

linguistics and training in formal linguistics. Subfield
specialisations might include any formal or applied areas of
linguistics. In addition to offering courses within the BA and MA

and teach courses in MSc in Computational Linguistics (offered jointly
with computer scientists) and supervise research projects within the
programme. Research and teaching experience in corpus linguistics,
natural language processing and/or digital humanities is preferred.

The Department of English is an established and distinguished
multinational, scholarly community. The Department offers an
undergraduate degree in English Studies (focusing simultaneously on
literary studies and linguistics), as well as elective courses in
translation studies. At the graduate level the Department hosts two MA
programmes in (i) English Studies and (ii) Translation and PhD degrees
in either (a) Literary Studies or (b) Linguistics. FAH is home to both
the Centre for Linguistics <https://linguistics.fah.um.edu.mo/> and
the Centre for Studies of Translation, Interpreting and Cognition
<https://cstic.um.edu.mo/>. The Department of English actively offers
courses in the Computational Linguistics specialisation of the
Programme of MSc in Data Science offered by the Institute of
Collaborative Innovation < https://ici.um.edu.mo/>.

Qualifications
The successful candidate should have a PhD in Linguistics or related
areas, teaching experience at the tertiary level (particularly for the
application of Associate Professor), and a record of research
appropriate to the rank of Associate/Assistant Professor. Applicants

potential publication, a willingness to provide service to the
University and the Department of English, and an interest in the
English language in Asian contexts. Candidates with quality research
publications and teaching experience in computational linguistics are
particularly welcome.

The selected candidate is expected to assume duty in August 2024.
