Description:
The Department of Translation and Language Sciences at Universitat
Pompeu Fabra is seeking to hire a lecturer (in Catalan, “Lector”; in
Spanish “Ayudante doctor”) with a PhD in (Applied) Linguistics, French
Linguistics, or allied field. This position is formally for a period
of six years, though it can be expected to lead to the creation of a
permanent position with the same or a related profile if the chosen
candidate performs successfully at the half-way and final evaluations
inherent to this type of contract. The research specialization is
open, but we are looking for profiles that complement existing
research strengths in the Department. We particularly welcome
applications from candidates with an interdisciplinary orientation and
whose research can establish new connections with other research areas
in the department, including multi/bilingualism, language
learning/teaching, corpus or computational linguistics, language
contact and change, and/or morphosyntactic theory. Native or
near-native competence in French is essential, including a strong
capacity for description and analysis of advanced French grammar,
ideally incorporating a contrastive perspective. Commitment to
excellence in teaching is expected. Communicative skills and interest
in transferring research outcomes to the academic community as well as
society at large will also be valued. Prior knowledge of Spanish or
Catalan is not essential, but new faculty must attain a C1 level in
Catalan (Common European Framework of Reference) within two-years of
being hired. While knowledge of English is not required, it is an
important interlingua in the Department.
The standard teaching load is between 120-180 classroom hours annually
in undergraduate and graduate courses, including final project
supervision (undergraduate, master’s and PhD dissertations).
Specifically, the candidate will be expected to teach and coordinate
teams of co-teachers for courses in the description and analysis of
French grammar, as well as in the competence and use of the French
language, in the BA degrees offered by the School of Translation and
Language Sciences. Versatility in teaching profile is essential, and
ability to contribute to teaching needs in other areas of the
bachelor’s degrees and our Master’s in Theoretical and Applied
Linguistics will be valued.
