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 General / Computational Linguistics
to commence as soon as possible.
The future job holder must be excellently qualified in research in the field of general / computational linguistics, evidenced by relevant publications in leading journals and conference proceedings.
Proven excellence in research using current computational linguistic methods is expected. Experience with linguistically informed data formats is desirable.

The successful candidate must be willing to acquire third-party funding and to participate in collaborative interdisciplinary third-party funded projects at the University.
Required qualifications include a PhD or equivalent degree as well as postdoctoral qualifications and teaching experience equivalent to the requirements of a full professorship.
