4 Lecturers, Fixed Term

As part of its retention and replacement strategy, the Department of
Philosophy is seeking to appoint four temporary Lecturers for one
year, beginning 1 September 2007. The posts arise in the first
instance out of the need to cover the study leave of a number of
members of staff and cover undergraduate and postgraduate teaching
and supervision in the following areas:

§       History of Science (with relevant philosophical interests)
§       Philosophy of Science (preferably with interests in
philosophy of biology)
§       Philosophy (preferably with interests in epistemology)
§       Philosophy (preferably with interests in value theory and/or
history of philosophy)

The intention is to appoint to a maximum of two positions at
University Grade 8.

For a Lecturer appointment, you will have a PhD (awarded or nearing
completion) in an appropriate area of Philosophy or History and
Philosophy of Science, relevant experience of teaching within the
discipline and will be developing a publication profile appropriate
for submission in the next RAE exercise.

For all posts you will be able to demonstrate effective teaching
skills and a range of delivery techniques and assessment methods. For
appointment at Lecturer Grade 8 in particular, candidates should have
a strong record of research publications, experience of teaching
history of science or philosophy in higher education and relevant
administrative experience.
