Semantics job at UCL: Deadline March 1

The Linguistics Research Department at UCL is looking for a semanticist with a strong commitment to world- class research. The appointment will be at Lecturer, Senior Lecturer or Reader level (Lecturer is comparable to Assistant Professor; Reader is comparable to Associate Professor). The successful candidate will have a record of high-quality publications commensurate with the stage of their academic career. He or she will contribute to the department’s research, teaching, graduate supervision, and administration.

The Linguistics Research Department has recently become part of a new Division of Psychology and Language Sciences at UCL, which offers enhanced opportunities for cross-disciplinary research. The appointment also follows a move to newly refurbished premises where the infrastructure exists for the successful applicant to build up their own research team.

The successful applicant will start work at UCL on 1 September 2013. 

The successful candidate will hold a doctorate in linguistics or a cognate discipline and will be engaged in a program of original research that enhances the department’s research portfolio and that can give rise to PhD projects and applications for research funding.

Informal enquiries can be made to Dr Nathan Klinedinst (+1 (864) 315 9878, n.klinedinst@ucl.ac.uk) or to the Head of Department, Prof Ad Neeleman (+ 44 (0) 20 7679 4045, a.neeleman@ucl.ac.uk).
