Glasgow Caledonian – the largest and leading modern university in Scotland - is a vibrant, values-led university with campuses in the heart of Glasgow and London. With a strong commitment to high quality education and research which supports the communities we serve, we have strong partnerships with employers to ensure our students get the careers they dream of and deserve. In 2023 we rocketed into the top 40 universities in the UK in the highly regarded Guardian University Guide, we are ranked the UK’s 2nd top performing modern university in the inaugural Daily Mail guide, and entered the top highly coveted 50 UK universities in the 2024 Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide for the first time. We are the top performing modern University in Scotland in all three guides. We are seeking to appoint a Lecturer in Criminology and Sociology to deliver teaching and learning in these disciplines, to undertake research and publish in high quality journals, and to develop the profile of the Department and related programmes both nationally and internationally. The successful candidate will become a member of a team contributing to both undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and supervision across the Social Sciences. A key responsibility of this post holder will be to lead the development of a new masters’ programme in the area of global security, drawing on the expertise of colleagues across the department and in related areas. We are looking for an individual with a PhD (or near completion/equivalent) in a relevant discipline with experience of teaching and supervising in criminology/sociology at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. You should also have experience of module and teaching administration and research expertise in a relevant specialism. We expect that candidates will also have experience in relation to inclusive learning and disability. If you would like to discuss this opportunity, please contact Dr Annette Robertson, Head of Department of Social Sciences, by emailing Annette.Robertson@gcu.ac.uk. As the University for the Common Good, we are committed to embedding equality, diversity and inclusion, as well as our values in everything that we do. As such, we welcome applications from all suitably qualified candidates who demonstrate the GCU Values. Please note that the appointment will be made on the first point of the salary scale (unless by exception).
