The School of Psychology at the University of Birmingham wishes to strengthen our School with the appointment of a Lecturer/Senior Lecturer with specific expertise in computational modelling. The School is continuing to recruit as a result of outstanding performance in the 2014 Research Excellence Framework (REF) and major investment provided to the School by the University.
The post holder is expected to contribute to research, teaching and administration (as appropriate to the level of appointment). Research involves initiating, creating and disseminating knowledge. It also involves securing the funding required for research and can involve public engagement, as well as pursuing research applications and societal impact. At Senior Lecturer level, research is likely to involve an established international reputation through a clear record of academic and/or industrial impact. Teaching is likely to include a substantial contribution to: (a) the development, management, and delivery of teaching and assessment with the aim of enhancing student learning; and (b) enhancement of the student experience. The role will typically also involve collaborating with others, including: (a) providing expert advice to staff and students, (b) supervising and examining PhD students, and (c) developing and advising others on learning and teaching tasks and methods. Administration is likely to involve both contributions within the School and contributions to the wider College and University. This may include developing and making substantial contributions to knowledge transfer, enterprise, business engagement, public engagement, widening participation, schools outreach, or similar activities at School level or further within the University. For Senior Lecturers there is likely to be a sustained high value high impact contribution at University level.
