The Faculty of Education is looking for an innovative, research-active educator to join the Psychology and Education group within a leading national and international centre for educational research and teacher development.
Expertise is required in the following specific areas (a) biological bases of behaviour/physiological psychology, including evolutionary perspectives; and (b) the use of quantitative, statistical methods in psychological and educational research. Teaching duties would relate to both undergraduate and postgraduate provision. The Faculty of Education runs a very successful M.Phil course in Psychology and Education, with recruitment averaging 25 FTE per annum, and the appointed lecturer would be expected to make a major contribution to that course (which has British Psychological Society recognized status). Members of the P&E group also contribute to the Faculty's provision in initial teacher education, which is regarded as outstanding.
The Faculty of Education is committed to the highest standards of research and teaching and is a significant contributor to the improvement of educational policy and practice in partnership with schools and other educational agencies both in the UK and internationally.
Informal enquiries can be addressed to the Head of Faculty designate, Professor Peter Gronn (pg348@cam.ac.uk), or to Professor Neil Mercer (nmm31@cam.ac.uk)
Further particulars, including criteria for recruitment and details of the application process may be obtained at www.educ.cam.ac.uk/about/
The expectation is that the starting salary for the University Lecturer post will be limited to the bottom points of the salary range, i.e., points 49-51, £36,715 - £38,951 per year.
