Faculty of Philosophy & Faculty of Linguistics, Philology, and Phonetics
POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP IN SEMANTICS
Grade 7, £28,839 – £35,469 per annum
Fixed-term for two years from 1 October 2009
A fixed-term research and teaching appointment in Semantics is available from 1 October 2009 for two years. Candidates with a background in either philosophy or linguistics will both be considered, though a strength in semantics is required.
This initiative is designed to provide an intensive and supported career development opportunity for an outstanding academic at an early stage of his or her career, and to promote equality of opportunity by helping to create a more diverse pool of potential candidates for future academic posts at Oxford or elsewhere. Applications for this post are especially welcome from women and ethnic minorities, who are under-represented among the University’s academic staff (section 38 of the Sex Discrimination Act 1975 and section 48 of the Race Relations Act 1976 apply).
This Fellowship is offered jointly by the Faculty of Philosophy and the Faculty of Linguistics, Philology, and Phonetics. The successful candidate must have obtained his or her doctorate by 1 October 2009, and should not normally have completed it earlier than 1 October 2005. He or she will have a proven track record of research in the area of Semantics, and will demonstrate potential for producing outstanding research in this area within the period of the Fellowship.
Postdoctoral Fellows are offered the opportunity to develop their expertise in both research and teaching. They will also have an academic mentor as well as a personalised career and professional development package, including the opportunity to undertake the University’s Postgraduate Diploma in Learning and Teaching.
Further particulars, including details of how to apply, can be obtained here (PDF) and http://www.ling-phil.ox.ac.uk.
The deadline for receipt of applications and references is Friday 6 March 2009.
The University of Oxford is an equal opportunities employer.
