the German Hochschulrahmengesetz).

Duties for the position include teaching of syntax and crosslinguistic studies.
The teaching load is two courses (90 minutes per week each) per semester.

The position is at the rank of 'Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter' (M.A. or
equivalent required; Ph.D. or equivalent preferred). The salary is determined by
the German civil servants payscale (Verguetungsgruppe BAT IIa) and amounts to
approximately 42.000 Euro per year. The exact salary amount varies depending on
age and marital status.

Applications should include CV and an outline of teaching and research
experience/interests. Names and addresses of two references would be helpful.
Applications should be sent by mail or email to the address below.

Applications received by March 31, 2005 will receive full consideration,
although interviews may start at any time and will continue until the position
has been filled.

Disabled applicants will be preferred when having the same qualification. The
University of Bielefeld strives to increase the proportion of women in research
and teaching, and therefore encourages qualified female scholars to apply.
