The School of European Culture and Languages is seeking to appoint a Lecturer in Applied Linguistics (Teaching and Scholarship).

An additional interest in the teaching of stylistics or the language of the media is highly desirable.

The appointee’s duties will include contributing to the recently launched MA in Applied Linguistics for TESOL, developing, convening, and teaching modules suitable for the MA in Applied Linguistics for TESOL and the MA in Linguistics, as well as convening and teaching modules relevant to language teaching and the language of the media from Stage 1 to Stage 3 for the BA in English Language and Linguistics.

With a strong commitment to personal excellence in teaching you will have demonstrable teaching experience at university level and the ability to deliver effective research-led teaching at undergraduate and postgraduate level in TESOL methodology, from both a theoretical and a practical perspective. An additional interest in the teaching of stylistics or the language of the media is highly desirable.

Whilst a teaching qualification is desirable, it is an essential requirement of this post that you have a PhD or equivalent in a relevant discipline.
