Job Details

1-year postdoctoral position in either behavioral methods to explore language processing or corpus data collection and quantitative analysis, associated with the Spanish AEI project "Connecting Conceptual and Referential Models of Meaning (CONNECT) 2".

Gross salary: 27.064 euros

The Department of Translation and Language Sciences at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, announces a one year postdoctoral position for a researcher with experience in *either* behavioral methods to explore language processing (self-paced reading or eye-tracking would be a plus) *or* corpus data collection and quantitative analysis, associated with the project "Connecting Conceptual and Referential Models of Meaning (CONNECT) 2" starting no later than September 1, 2019, and preferably as early as May 1, 2019, depending on when the position is filled and the availability of the successful candidate.

In addition to the one of the above-mentioned methodological strengths, the ideal candidate will have a research specialization related to at least one of the focal data areas of the project: nominalization, incorporation constructions, or the syntax/semantics of participles. Job responsibilities will consist in contributing to the development of the project via original collaborative research in one or more of these areas and in carrying out supporting tasks related to the project.

In principle, teaching is not required, though the candidate may be asked to help in the advising of graduate students or the organization of the GLIF research group's activities (https://www.upf.edu/web/glif). Knowledge of Catalan or Spanish is not essential, but basic communicative skills would help.

Review of applications will start on March 1, 2019 and continue until the position is filled. Inquiries about the project/position should be sent to the same address.

Universitat Pompeu Fabra is a highly international, research-oriented institution. For more information about the university and the Department of Translation and Language Sciences, see https://www.upf.edu/web/traduccio.
