The University seeks to appoint to a (tenurable) University Lectureship in the History of Art, to take up post from 1 October 2007. The post represents an outstanding opportunity to participate in the development of art history at Oxford, with a new undergraduate degree and an expanding graduate programme. The post will be held in conjunction with a Tutorial Fellowship at St John's College, and will attract a combined University and College salary in the range of £37,642 to £50,589 a year.

Further particulars and details of how to apply are available at http://www.admin.ox.ac.uk/fp/, or may be obtained from the Faculty Board Office, History Faculty, Broad Street, Oxford, OX1 3BD (e-mail board.admin@history.ox.ac.uk).

UNIVERSITY LECTURESHIP IN PHONETICS AND PHONOLOGY

The University, in association with St Hilda's College and Oriel College, proposes to appoint a University Lecturer in Phonetics and Phonology from 1 April 2007, or as soon as possible thereafter. The post will be under the Committee for Comparative Philology, Linguistics, and Phonetics, the body that oversees those subjects. This new post is one of several openings designed to strengthen the academic provision for teaching and research in linguistics and in phonetics at Oxford. The person appointed may be offered a supernumary Fellowship at St Hilda's College and a one-hour stipendiary Lectureship at Oriel College. The salary will be in the range of £37,642 to £50,589 a year (grade 10a).

The successful candidate should have a proven record of advanced research and publication, as well as relevant prior teaching experience and/or training. If English is not the Lecturer's mother tongue, he or she should be sufficiently proficient to carry out teaching duties in that language. An advanced training in the phonetics and phonology of English is essential; expertise in the phonetics and phonology of other languages will be an advantage. Suitable applicants will ideally have at least a higher degree in phonetics, phonology, or linguistics, with a specialism in some aspect of phonetics and phonology.

Further particulars (including information about how to apply) are available to download from http://www.admin.ox.ac.uk/fp, or may be obtained from Mrs K. Dobson, Centre for Linguistics and Philology, Walton Street, Oxford, OX1 2HG. The closing date for applications is 8 January 2007, and interviews are expected to take place in the week beginning 12 February.
