The ability to engage with the departmental focus on functional and usage-based approaches to linguistic explanation is essential. Candidates must have demonstrated excellence in teaching and will be expected to teach a range of graduate and undergraduate courses in general linguistics and field linguistics, including a year-long graduate field methods sequence.
