Crynodeb
This role will be based in Durham with time spent at Durham's overseas partnerships, initially in China (for up to 180 days per year). The role will be managed by Durham Centre for Academic Development (DCAD) and involve leading and coordinating aspects of the design and delivery of the EAP provision to all students on these programmes. We welcome applications from those with teaching and scholarship interests in the broad field of English for Academic Purposes (EAP) and/or academic language and literacies in a higher education context and we are particularly eager to hear from applicants with experience of developing high-quality materials/learning resources in range of formats (including online) and the ability to collaborate effectively with a range of stakeholders including academic departments.
Assistant Professors (Education) at Durham
Assistant Professors on the Education track contribute to teaching, innovation, and citizenship, with opportunities to enhance their own development, support their department and discipline, and contribute to the wider student experience.
Teaching quality and innovation is critical to ensure a first-class learning environment and curricula for all our students. You will be supported to develop your teaching expertise, to engage in teaching innovation, to enrich our student experience, and will be assigned a designated mentor.
You will be expected to engage in scholarship related to pedagogy, noting that any other independent research (beyond pedagogy) is not part of this post. The appointment will be on the University's 'Education Track' career path, which provides clearly defined opportunities for progression against defined criteria.
We are confident that our recruitment process allows us to attract and select the best talent to Durham. We therefore offer a reduced probation period of 1 year for our Assistant Professors (Education) and thereafter, subject to satisfactory performance, your position will be confirmed as permanent.
Applicants must demonstrate teaching excellence in the field of English for Academic Purposes/Academic Language and Literacies, with the ability to teach our students to an exceptional standard and to fully engage in the services, citizenship and values of the University.
The University aims to provides a working and teaching environment which is inclusive and welcoming and where everyone is treated fairly with dignity and respect. Candidates will be expected to demonstrate these key principles as part of the assessment process.
