From: Victoria Koc [vkoc at fas.harvard.edu]
Subject: Computational Linguistics, Sociolinguistics, Syntax: Lecturer in Linguistics, Harvard University


University or Organization: Harvard University
Department: Linguistics
Job Location: Massachusetts, USA
Web Address: https://linguistics.fas.harvard.edu/
Job Title: Lecturer in Linguistics
Job Rank: Lecturer

Specialty Areas: Computational Linguistics; Sociolinguistics; Syntax

Description:

The Department of Linguistics seeks applications for a lecturer in
linguistics, with a focus on at least one of the areas of syntax,
sociolinguistics, or computational linguistics. Please note that we
will give full consideration to candidates who serve only one of these
areas. The lecturer will be responsible for teaching four courses (two
per semester). One of the courses, in the fall, will be a thesis
workshop for undergraduate seniors. Another course, likely also in the
fall, will be a graduate-level introduction to one of the fields
mentioned above, as appropriate to the candidate’s background. The two
remaining courses will be assigned based on the candidate’s
specialization; we anticipate that one will be at the undergraduate
level and the other at the graduate level. Furthermore, the appointee
is expected to be available to contribute to the advising of both
undergraduates and graduates in their area. The appointment is full
time for one year and will begin on July 1, 2024 and end on June 30,
2025.

The health of our workforce is a priority for Harvard University. With
that in mind, we strongly encourage all employees to be up-to-date on
CDC-recommended vaccines.

Doctorate in Linguistics or related discipline required by the time
the appointment begins.

Demonstrated strong commitment to teaching is desired.
