The Department of Psychology in cooperation with the Linguistics
Program is pleased to announce a tenure-track position at the
assistant professor level. We are looking for an individual with a
strong research program in language processing that meshes well with
the current strengths of the department (i.e., reading and related
processes, developmental cognitive neuroscience, prevention science,
race-culture & ethnicity). It is anticipated that the successful
candidate will also serve as core faculty in the university s
interdisciplinary doctoral program in Linguistics. The psychology
department has well-established collaborative ties with the School of
Medicine, Communications Disorders, and Linguistics. Existing research
facilities include high density erp and dpi eye movement monitoring
laboratories and plans are underway for a new fMRI facility.
Successful applicants will have demonstrated the ability to conduct
independent research and must show promise of the ability to acquire
external grant funding. Applications should be received by October
31, 2002 and should include curriculum vitae, a cover letter detailing
teaching philosophy and research directions, and examples of published
research. Applicants should arrange to have three letters of
reference sent to the Search Committee. Review of applications will
continue until the position is filled. Send applications via email to
Robin K. Morris, morrisrsc.edu, or by postal mail to:

Department of Psychology,
University of South Carolina,

The USC Linguistics Program, with faculty in five academic departments
in the College of Liberal Arts, supports a graduate program (granting
the Ph.D. and M.A. in Linguistics, and a TEFL Certificate) and an
undergraduate minor. We currently have about 40 active students in
the graduate program, and were ranked 7th among linguistics doctoral
programs in the 2000 National Doctoral Program Survey conducted by the
National Association of Graduate-Professional Students
(http://survey.nagps.org/index.php). The program's dual emphasis on
theoretical and applied aspects of linguistics is one of its major
strengths, and the great variety of research conducted by faculty and
graduate students is a reflection of the intellectual diversity that
characterizes the program. For more information about the program,
prospective applicants are invited to explore the our website:
