New! Visit LL's Multitree project for over 1000 trees dynamically generated from scholarly hypotheses about language relationships: http://multitree.linguistlist.org/ The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to engage in non-discriminatory hiring practices. We urge employers not to discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity, nationality, disability, 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. To post to LINGUIST, use our convenient web form at http://linguistlist.org/posttolinguist.cfm

Applicants must also have teaching experience in the context of a university-level linguistics (or closely similar) program, as instructor responsible for all aspects of one or more courses. Because some courses to be taught under this contract are part of a program for TESL Ontario Adult ESL Certification, applicants must hold or be eligible to obtain TESL Ontario TESL Trainer Accreditation at least for Theory.

The Department of Applied Linguistics at Brock has eleven permanent faculty members plus one limited term appointment, and has a vibrant undergraduate program and an M.A. program. Review of applications will commence on April 25, 2012 and will continue until the position is filled. Applicants should submit a letter of application accompanied by a curriculum vitae and evidence of teaching competence, and should arrange for the submission of three letters of reference. All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and permanent residents will be given priority. The position is subject to final budgetary approval. Applications should be sent to the application address or email address below. Electronic submissions are acceptable. Brock University is actively committed to diversity and the principles of Employment Equity and invites applications from all qualified candidates. Women, Aboriginal peoples, members of visible minorities, and people with disabilities are especially encouraged to apply and to voluntarily self identify as a member of a designated group as part of their application.
