Deadline: February 9, 2019

The University of Stirling seeks to appoint a Senior Lecturer (Grade 9) in Film and Gender Studies with a demonstrable interest and expertise in gender.

The appointee will contribute to doctoral, masters and undergraduate provisions within Stirling’s highly regarded film and media programme (ranked 8th in the UK in the latest Guardian rankings). The appointee will also take leadership of the MSc/MLitt in Gender Studies. While Stirling has always encouraged scholars with a diverse range of interests within the broad ambit of film and screen studies, we would be particularly interested in building capacity within the Division in areas such as science fiction and film theory.

The MSc/MLitt in Gender Studies (Applied) at the University of Stirling is unique in the UK and is attracting a growing number of students interested in placing the application of learning to real-world contexts which lies at the heart of the course. The course awards two scholarships annually specifically for students studying the MSc/MLitt in Gender Studies (Applied), the Dr Dee Amy-Chinn Gender Studies Scholarship and the Gender Studies Community Bursary. The programme has been co-ordinated since inception five years ago by the departing chair and is proving particularly popular among third sector organisations both as hosts of masters interns and as a platform for re-training.

Contract Type: Open Ended

Working Pattern: Full Time

Salary: Grade 9 (£50,132-£58,089)

Closing date: Midnight on Saturday, 9th February 2019
