    ================================
    Assistant Professor, Computational/Corpus Linguistics

    The Linguistics Department of the University of California, Santa
    Barbara seeks to hire a specialist in computational and/or corpus
    linguistic approaches to language. The appointment will be
    tenure-track at the Assistant Professor level, effective July 1, 2005.

    We are especially interested in candidates whose research shows
    theoretical implications bridging computational and/or corpus
    linguistics and general linguistics, and who can interact with
    colleagues and students across disciplinary boundaries at
    UCSB. Candidates will be preferred whose research engages with the
    departmental focus on functional and usage-based approaches to
    explaining language.

    Research experience with corpora of naturally occurring language use
    is required. Candidates must have demonstrated excellence in teaching,
    and will be expected to teach a range of graduate and undergraduate
    courses in both computational/corpus linguistics and general
    linguistics.

    Ph.D. in linguistics or a related field such as cognitive science or
    computer science is required. Ph.D. normally required by the time of
    appointment. Applicants should submit hard copy of curriculum vitae,
    statement of research interests, 1-2 writing samples, and full contact
    information for three academic references to the Search Committee,
    Linguistics Department, UCSB, Santa Barbara, CA 93106-3100. Fax and
    email applications not accepted.

    Inquiries may be addressed to the above address or via email to
    lingsearch@linguistics.ucsb.edu. Tentative deadline is November 12,
    2004. However, the position will remain open until filled. Preliminary
    interviews will be conducted at the Linguistic Society of America,
    although attendance is not required for consideration. The department
    is especially interested in candidates who can contribute to the
    diversity and excellence of the academic community through research,
    teaching and service. UCSB is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action
    employer.
