>The University of Wisconsin-Madison has created a cluster of three faculty
>positions in the interdisciplinary area of Cognitive Science. The aim of
>the cluster is to develop innovative and competitive research programs that
>will foster productive interactions among faculty and students across
>departments and expand the contributions of Cognitive Science into the
>wealth of related research already present on the University of
>Wisconsin-Madison campus.
>
>Successful candidates will use the cluster structure as a catalyst for
>collaborative research; advise graduate students; contribute to the
>University's teaching mission; and participate in faculty governance in
>their respective departments, colleges, and/or the University. Faculty
>hired under this initiative will have primary or joint faculty appointments
>in existing campus departments.
>
>To initiate the cluster we are seeking a senior candidate with a strong
>reputation for successful interdisciplinary collaboration in an area of
>Cognitive Science. Two areas of specific interest are (1) judgment and
>decision making and (2) linguistics and computation. The ideal candidate

>research interests, and to the application of basic research to problems in
>one or more of the following: behavioral science, computer science,
