W3 (Full) Professor of Computational Linguistics (m/f/d)

Faculty of Humanities, Institute of Linguistics

Application deadline: 20.06.2024

The Faculty of Humanities at the University of Tübingen invites applications for a position at the Institute of Linguistics as a

*W3 (Full) Professor of Computational Linguistics (m/f/d)*

to commence as soon as possible.

The future position holder must be outstanding in research in the field of Computational Linguistics, evidenced by relevant publications in leading journals and conference proceedings. Demonstrated expertise in modern NLP methods, such as neural language models or other machine learning techniques, is required. Desirable is a research profile that is compatible with linguistic theory and cognitive science, such as through theoretical or empirical comparisons of machine and human learning and processing. As the professorship will play a key role in the partly international Bachelor and Master programs in Computational Linguistics/Computational Linguistics, General Linguistics, and Cognitive Science, the future position holder should be able to represent the full breadth of Computational Linguistics.

Willingness to acquire third-party funding and to participate in collaborative interdisciplinary third-party funded projects of the university is expected.

Required qualifications include a PhD or equivalent degree as well as postdoctoral qualifications and teaching experience equivalent to the requirements of a full professorship.

The University of Tübingen is committed to equal opportunity, diversity and inclusion. Female scientists, in particular, are explicitly invited to apply, as are applicants from outside Germany.

Applications from equally qualified candidates with disabilities will be given preference.
