The Department of Linguistics at Stanford University announces a full-time
position for a tenure-track assistant professor or beginning associate
professor with a starting date of September 1, 2003. Candidates must hold
the Ph.D. in linguistics or a related field by the starting date. The
department values research programs that link more than one subfield of
linguistics in the development of larger theories of language and language
use, and it emphasizes rigorous theoretical work solidly based on empirical
data from, among other sources, corpora of spoken and written usage,
experimental findings, fieldwork, and computer modeling. We are
particularly interested in receiving applications from candidates in the
following areas: phonetics/phonology, sociolinguistics/variation & change,
and computational linguistics/language processing. Filling this position
represents an initial step in our long-range plans for the department.

To receive full consideration, applications should arrive by December 6th,
2002. Stanford University is an equal opportunity employer and especially
welcomes applications from women and minority candidates. Please include a
