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.

Description:
The 'Language Acquisition' Junior Research Group at the Georg-Elias- Müller Institute for Psychology, Georg-August University Göttingen invites applications for a Post-doctoral position (100% TV-L 13: 39,8 hours/week) in the group. The "Language Acquisition" Junior Research Group at Georg-Elias- Müller Institut für Psychologie is interested in examining the mechanisms underlying the ease of infants' language acquisition and language processing.

Candidates for the post-doctoral position should hold a doctorate in Psychology, Linguistics, Cognitive Science or related fields. The candidate is expected to develop their own project in the context of the group's research foci. Other requirements include excellent communication skills, an interest in experimental psycholinguistic research and a commitment to interdisciplinary research. Candidates with previous experience in experimental studies with young children are especially encouraged to apply. The working language of the group is English and applicants from outside Germany are encouraged to apply. The position is initially available for 12 months starting 1st October 2012 and can be extended for up to 3 years following successful evaluation of the group and the person. The University of Göttingen is an equal opportunities employer and places particular emphasis on fostering career opportunities for women. Qualified women are therefore strongly encouraged to apply as they are underrepresented in this field. Disabled persons with equivalent aptitude will be favoured.
