OPEN-RANK SYNTAX POSITION
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY

Pending budgetary approval, the Department of Linguistics at the
University of California, Berkeley has been authorized to make an
appointment in syntax. Junior and senior scholars are equally
encouraged to apply for this open-rank (tenure-track or tenured)
position. Rank and salary will be commensurate with experience; the
Ph.D. is required by July 1, 2004, the starting date of the
appointment. Duties will include undergraduate and graduate advising
and teaching (four courses per year in syntax, as well as other areas
of linguistics), supervision of student research, and development of a
successful and original research program.

The Department of Linguistics at Berkeley is strongly committed to the
integration of theoretical and empirical approaches to the study of
language. Applicants should have a broad intellectual engagement with
the field of linguistics, a theoretically informed research
specialization in syntax, and demonstrated excellence in teaching.
The ideal candidate's interests and experience will intersect with
existing research at Berkeley, and will include either a strong
language area specialization or some expertise in an allied field such
as semantics or computational linguistics.

Applicants should include curricula vitae, representative work, and
evidence of excellence in teaching. Applicants who received the
Ph.D. before 2000 should include the names and addresses of three
potential referees; other applicants should arrange for three letters
of recommendation to be sent. Please refer your referees to the
University's statement on confidentiality, found at:
