research support.

Review of applications will begin September 1st and continue until the

About the Departments and Bilingualism Research at UTEP:
The Psychology Department has 22 tenured and tenure-track faculty
members, with 5 who conduct cognitive research on bilingualism. The
Ph.D. program has a concentration in Bilingualism, Language, and
Cognition for which both Psychology and Linguistics faculty can serve
as mentors. The Department of Chicano Studies, Languages, and
Linguistics, which includes the Chicano Studies Program, has 10
tenured and tenure-track faculty members, 5 of whom conduct linguistic
research on bilingualism. Faculty in the Speech-Language Pathology
Program and the College of Education also conduct research on
bilingualism. Faculty from several departments participate in an
interdisciplinary Consortium, and UTEP has recently been approved to
establish a chapter of Bilingualism Matters.

About The University of Texas at El Paso:

Hispanic-serving university. Located at the westernmost tip of Texas,
where three states and two countries converge along the Rio Grande,
UTEP is a comprehensive public research university that is increasing
access to excellent higher education. We advance the discovery of
public value and positively impact the health, culture, education, and
economy of the community we serve. Eighty-four percent of UTEP
