The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to use
non-discriminatory standards in hiring policy. In particular we urge
that employers do not discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity,
nationality, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we
have no means of enforcing these standards.
Job seekers should pay special attention to language in ads regarding
employment requirements and are encouraged to consult our international
employment page at http://linguistlist.org/jobs/jobnet.html. This page has been
set up so that people can report on the employment standards of various countries.

Description:
The English Language Institute at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, is
inviting applications for a postdoctoral research fellowship in corpus
linguistics and second language acquisition. The position is for one year
with the possibility of renewal for an additional year, with a starting
date between September and December, 2006.
Applicants should be well-versed in corpus-linguistic methodology, and will
be expected to assist with corpus design as well as corpus tools.
Additionally, the candidate should have expertise in second language
acquisition (or possibly psycholinguistics), particularly with regard to
the acquisition of vocabulary, phraseology, collocation, construction
grammar, or pragmatics.
In accordance with ELI tradition, we are seeking a candidate who is
interested in creating corpus-based resources for the linguistic research
community as well as for teachers and students world-wide. Furthermore, the
candidate would be encouraged to use ELI corpora, such as MICASE (the
Michigan Corpus of Academic Spoken English) and MICUSP (the Michigan Corpus
of Upper-level Student Papers, currently under development), as a basis for
developing teaching and testing materials.
To apply, please send CV and cover letter emphasizing relevant background,
including contact information for two references. For additional
information or informal inquiries, please contact Dr. Annelie Adel at
aadelumich.edu or Dr. Nick Ellis at ncellisunich.edu. The deadline for
application is September 10, 2006. We welcome both U.S. and international
applications.
Applications may be submitted as e-mail attachments.
