Psychology is an ambitious and expanding subject area within the Faculty of Health Sciences characterized by thriving multidisciplinary teaching and innovative basic and applied research. Psychology has three core research groups centered on Cognition & Development, Cognitive & Clinical Neuroscience, and Mental Health & Wellbeing. Integral to our success has been a dedication to high-quality teaching and research excellence. Psychology’s overall research profile in the REF2014 was 70% world leading or internationally excellent and we were ranked 29th in the country for research intensity. The University also obtained Silver in the recent Teaching Excellence Framework assessment.
We are seeking to appoint a highly motivated and successful scientist in either Experimental Social Psychology or Social Neuroscience with the ability and skills to enable new insights into human interactions. You will have a track record of publishing in established international journals, enabling you to further enhance the world-class research and teaching within our Cognition & Development and Cognitive & Clinical Neuroscience research groups. You will have a vision and drive to develop an internationally competitive research portfolio and a clear view of how your research can be translated to achieve societal or healthcare impact. Experience in gaining competitive research grants, as well as in establishing collaborations with public sector organisations would be advantageous.
We are particularly interested in candidates who can further strengthen our research into the cognitive and neural processes involved in social interaction, group behaviour, and the processing of emotions.
The successful candidate must demonstrate a firm commitment to research-led teaching and will be expected to teach, supervise and module co-ordinate on our BSc Psychology programme.
