**Classification**: Academic Level A
**Salary package**: $76,271- $95,732 AUD per annum plus 17% Superannuation
**Term**: Full time, Fixed term (3 years)

The School of Literature, Languages and Linguistics seeks to appoint a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to support ongoing and new research initiatives in the ANU Language Lab (having previously been based in the ANU Research School of Psychology).

**Linguistics at ANU**

Linguistics at ANU is internationally acclaimed in both research and teaching. Linguists at ANU conduct research that is helping to shape the field, seen for example in international rankings — ANU was ranked as the top university in Australia for Linguistics in the 2021 QS rankings (and 22nd in the world) — and in the large number of Fellows of the Australian Academy of the Humanities (nine) and the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia (three). Our research underpins a vibrant undergraduate teaching program and fosters a thriving community of undergraduate and graduate students.

The program has close ties with other areas of strength at ANU, in particular in languages. ANU teaches the largest number of languages of any university in Australia, and has strong commitment to Australian Indigenous languages, and to Indigenous scholars of Australia and the region. Linguistics is housed in two areas, the School of Literature, Languages and Linguistics (College of Arts and Social Sciences) and the School of Culture, History and Language (College of Asia and the Pacific), and is affiliated with several research centres, including the ARC Centre of Excellence for the Dynamics of Language, the Institute for Communication in Health Care, the Australian National Dictionary Centre, and the newly formed Evolution of Cultural Diversity Initiative.

**College overview**

The ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences (CASS) is one of seven Colleges at ANU. The College, which is structured into two main research schools, offers degrees in more than 20 discipline areas and excels in research across the creative arts, humanities and social sciences. The College has a substantial international research presence and is a major source of national policy advice. Our academic staff are internationally recognised for their research, and 57 are members of the Australian Academy of the Humanities, the Academy of the Social Sciences of Australia, or both. We also host 13 Australian Research Council Future Fellows and three ARC Laureates. A hub of vibrant activity, we host more than 270 lectures, concerts and exhibitions each year, most of which are open to the public. Our students, staff and graduates come from more than 60 nations, bringing a diversity of perspective to campus life.

ANU values diversity and inclusion and is committed to providing equal employment opportunities to those of all backgrounds and identities.
