Sociological perspectives on these areas would be particularly welcomed. This is a full academic role, and the post-holder’s contribution will span scholarship, teaching, research and administration.

 

The successful individual will play an active role in the school’s research community, should be able to contribute to doctoral supervision, the development of research grants, and the production of high quality publications. The post holder would be expected to actively participate in the work of one of the research centres.

 

The successful individual will be expected to join and make a positive contribution to our collegiate and creative teaching teams and contribute to the design and delivery of units on our MSc Education programme, in particular in the area of Special and Inclusive Education where they would be expected to lead the development of our future provision.
