Description:
The Division of Linguistics and Multilingual Studies (LMS) at Nanyang
Technological University (NTU), Singapore, invites applications for
faculty appointments at the rank of Associate Professor or Professor
(with tenure).
We welcome applications from established scholars in any field of
linguistics with an outstanding research record. We particularly
welcome candidates whose research will strengthen and advance LMS’s
distinctive focus on multilingualism in the Asia-Pacific region,
including those with expertise in multilingualism, language diversity,
and the languages and linguistic ecologies of the region. Candidates
working on Southeast Asia are especially encouraged to apply, although
outstanding candidates working across a broad range of geographical
contexts will be considered. The successful candidate will be expected
to contribute to the intellectual environment and research strategy of
LMS, provide intellectual leadership, and develop collaborations
within and beyond NTU.
LMS offers a vibrant and interdisciplinary environment for the study
of language in its structural, social, cognitive, and technological
dimensions. Singapore serves as our natural laboratory for research
that is grounded in multilingual Asia and globally relevant. LMS is
also internationally recognised for its work on multilingualism,
language diversity, language contact and change, and the interfaces
between language, society, cognition, and technology.
LMS is part of the School of Humanities (SoH), within NTU Singapore’s
College of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (CoHASS), where
students and scholars collaborate across fields from philosophy to
design to understand how people in Asia and beyond act in, shape, and
make sense of a technological world. CoHASS aims to be Asia’s leading
centre for innovative, interdisciplinary research and education in the
Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences.
Qualifications and Expectations:
Successful candidates should have:
 - A PhD in Linguistics or a closely related field.
 - A strong, internationally recognized research record, evidenced by
publications and other scholarly outputs of field- or world-leading
quality.
 - A strong track record of grant acquisition, graduate supervision,
and academic leadership.
 - A demonstrated commitment to interdisciplinary collaboration and
teaching excellence.
Applicants are invited to submit their applications through the NTU
career portal (https://apply.ap1.interfolio.com/119223).
