About Us
CLARIN (www.clarin.eu (http://www.clarin.eu)) is a European research infrastructure that makes digital language resources available to scholars, researchers, students and citizen-scientists from all disciplines, especially in the humanities and social sciences, through single sign-on access. CLARIN offers long-term solutions and technology services for deploying, connecting, analyzing and sustaining digital language data and tools. CLARIN supports scholars who want to engage in cutting edge data-driven research, contributing to a truly multilingual European Research Area.
The CLARIN offices are in the Netherlands (Utrecht University and Radboud University Nijmegen). The working place for this position is in one of our offices in the Netherlands (Radboud University Nijmegen or Utrecht University). Alternatively, the work can be carried out from a CLARIN centre - details for such an arrangement need to be worked out on an individual basis.
A better future for everyone. This ambition motivates our scientists in executing their leading research and inspiring teaching. At Utrecht University (https://www.uu.nl/en), the various disciplines collaborate intensively towards major strategic themes (https://www.uu.nl/en/research/profile/strategic-themes). Our focus is on Dynamics of Youth, Institutions for Open Societies, Life Sciences and Pathways to Sustainability. Sharing science, shaping tomorrow (https://youtu.be/yHkvpRYVPiA).
The Faculty of Humanities (https://www.uu.nl/en/organisation/faculty-of-humanities) has around 7,000 students and 1,100 staff members. It comprises four knowledge domains: Philosophy and Religious Studies, History and Art History, Media and Culture Studies, and Languages, Literature and Communication. With its research and education in these fields, the Faculty aims to contribute to a better understanding of the Netherlands and Europe in a rapidly changing social and cultural context. The enthusiastic and committed colleagues and the excellent amenities in the historical city centre of Utrecht, where the faculty is located (https://www.uu.nl/en/organisation/faculty-of-humanities/contact/buildings-and-opening-hours), contribute to an inspiring working environment.
