We are seeking to recruit two enthusiastic people to contribute to the
undergraduate and post-graduate teaching within this Department and to
develop research and other schorlarly activities as part of the
Department's research programme. One post will involve co-ordination
of the clinical activities of the department. Both posts offer
excellent opportunities for personal and professional development
within a supportive environment.

You will be a graduate with an interest in one or more of the
following areas:
Adult acquired disorders of communication and swallowing.
Communication in the elderly.
Disorders of fluency.
Learning disabilities (cognitive impairment).

Ideally you should have a higher degree in a relevant discipline and a
record of publication in peer reviewed journals. A speech and
language therapy qualification is highly desirable for both posts and
essential for the clinical co-ordinator. Previous experience in
teaching at degree level would be an advantage.

The Department has a friendly staff team and excellent research and
clinical resources. QMUC has the advantage of being set in Scotland's
capital city, with its wide range of cultural and social
opportunities.
