Job description

The Department of Linguistics at Stanford University seeks applicants for a junior or senior appointment at the rank of tenure-track Assistant Professor, tenured Associate Professor, or Full Professor in the area of Sociolinguistics. Applicants must have demonstrated a commitment to effective teaching and mentoring and the ability to maintain a world-class research program. The successful candidate must have a Ph.D. in Linguistics or a related field and will be expected to teach and advise students at both the graduate and undergraduate levels, and to maintain an active research program. The sociolinguistics program currently focuses on variation and social meaning based on fieldwork and quantitative data analysis. We seek a candidate who enriches this focus by further strengthening some of these areas or by broadening the focus in synergistic ways. We also welcome engagement with social theory and style. We value candidates whose research engages with multiple subfields of linguistics and applies methodologically rigorous empirical work to significant theoretical questions.

Assistant Professor: $115,133 - $135,388
