The Department of Cognitive Science at Johns Hopkins University seeks to
fill up to two faculty positions with candidates having an exceptionally
strong record of conducting and directing cognitive research. Three areas
of cognitive science are of particular interest: Theoretical syntax and
semantics and their interface; psycholinguistics; and mid to high-level
vision. Approaches of particular interest include formal theoretical,
experimental, and/or computational. The ideal candidate should carry out
research that makes substantive contact with linguistic theory (for the
first two content areas) and theories of vision (for the third), and draws
on multiple approaches. The rank is open, although preference may be given
to Assistant Professor appointments. Candidates should carry out
integrative work in the target areas, and have the ability to conduct
effective teaching, student supervision, and collaboration in a
formally-oriented, highly interdisciplinary cognitive science environment.
Applications will be reviewed starting October 15, 2008 and will be
considered until the positions are filled.
Johns Hopkins University actively encourages interest from minorities and
women.
Please send cover letter, CV, research statement, and three letters of
reference to the Cognitive Science Search Committee c/o Peggy MacKenzie
(email preferred).
The Johns Hopkins University is an Equal Opportunity, Affirmative Action
employer, Minorities, women, Vietnam-era veterans, disabled veterans and
individuals with disabilities are encouraged to apply.
