Dear all,

I would like to point you to two open positions (deadline for application is February 28) at our newly founded Chair of Multilingual Computational Linguistics at the University of Passau (Germany).

The first position is for an "assistant professor" (Akademischer Rat auf Zeit, m/w/d) with broad interest in linguistic typology, comparative linguistics, and computational linguistics. The position is for three years, can be prolonged by three more years, and can be used to write a habilitation thesis with me. Condition is a PhD that has been acquired before starting the position (preferably in comparative linguistics or computational linguistics).

The second position is for either an "assistant professor" (Akademischer Rat auf Zeit, m/w/d) or a "research and teaching assistant" (Wiss. Mitarbeiter, m/w/d), again for three years with possible extension by three more years, devoted to the enhancement and extension of our work on the standardization of cross-linguistic data. Condition is a PhD ("assistant professor") or a master in computer science or computational linguistics ("research and teaching assistant"). For detailed requirements (web administration and Python), please see the detailed call.
