**apologies for cross-posting** The Department of Linguistics at Boston University <http://ling.bu.edu> seeks to hire an Assistant Professor specializing in Computational Linguistics as part of a cluster hiring initiative in AI led by the Faculty of Computing & Data Sciences (CDS) <https://www.bu.edu/cds-faculty/>. The application will be handled centrally through CDS, and *we encourage candidates interested in the Department of Linguistics to explicitly include the keyword "Linguistics" in their primary research interests in their AJO application*. We will give full consideration to applications submitted by December 1, 2024, and will continue the review on a rolling basis until April 15, 2025.
The candidate will hold a primary appointment in Linguistics, with a secondary appointment in or affiliation with CDS. We expect the candidate to conduct research and teach courses in Computational Linguistics and related areas at all levels, and advise undergraduate and graduate students. The candidate's research must be at the intersection of Linguistics and AI; this could include, but is not limited to: studying how linguistic theory and experimental linguistic methodology can productively inform the evaluation of new language technologies, how domain knowledge about specific languages---especially understudied languages---can help generalize the benefits of such technologies in more equitable ways, or how the newly emerging capacities of AI can expand the computational linguists' modeling and analysis toolkit, potentially leading to methodological innovations and discoveries that were not possible before. We furthermore expect the candidate to hold a secondary specialization in at least one subfield of Linguistics. Requirements for this position include a PhD in relevant disciplines (e.g., Linguistics, Cognitive Science, Computer Science) in hand by the start date, plus demonstrated excellence in teaching and research. For questions, please contact the search chair (Paul Hagstrom, [email protected]). For details on the cluster hiring initiative, and on how to apply, see the official advertisement from CDS below.
