Specialty Areas: Multilingualism
Description:
One permanent position as Associate Professor in Multilingualism is available at the Center for Multilingualism in Society across the Lifespan (MultiLing), Department of Linguistics and Scandinavian Studies at the University of Oslo (UiO). Further information about MultiLing is available on its homepage:
http://www.hf.uio.no/multiling/english/. Further information about the Department of Linguistics and Scandinavian Studies can be found on its homepage:
http://www.hf.uio.no/iln/english/. MultiLing is a Center of Excellence funded by the Research Council of Norway, which was opened on June 1, 2013. Funding for the Center is for 10 years, contingent upon a successful midway evaluation of the first 5-year period. Once the Center’s financing from the Research Council of Norway has terminated, the position will be fully integrated into the Department of Linguistics and Scandinavian Studies.
The position as Associate Professor is attached to MultiLing with research relevance for MultiLing as a central requirement. Although the successful candidate's research profile may be firmly anchored within one of MultiLing's three research themes (see MultiLing’s website), candidates successfully documenting research that draws on perspectives from more than one theme will be given priority. The teaching component of the position will be instruction that is part of the educational program at the Department of Linguistics and Scandinavian Studies. The successful applicant is expected to initiate and lead research within one or more of the research themes of MultiLing, to supervise PhD and MA candidates, to participate in teaching, exam setting and evaluation at all levels, and to carry out administrative duties in accordance with applicable rules. While the research component of the position is defined by the fields of inquiry relevant for MultiLing, the teaching component can encompass several areas covered in the courses given at the department. A special emphasis will be given to documented teaching competence and/or experience in discourse analysis or conversation analysis.
For further information about the position, please consult the job website where there is also access to the online application form.
