Please note, this post is fixed-term until 31 July 2027 and full-time at 1 FTE.
The School of Natural Sciences is looking to strengthen our current teaching and research provision as we look to deliver on the new University Strategy. We are building on an internationally recognised research and teaching environment with a focus on interdisciplinary working and research-led teaching. The School currently delivers a range of undergraduate BSc degrees including Animal Behaviour and Welfare, Biochemistry, Biology, Biomedical Science, Bioveterinary Science, Ecology and Conservation, and Zoology, as well as a number of MSc programmes.
Complementing our modern teaching laboratories we also have exceptional research facilities in the Joseph Banks Laboratories and Minster House, where faculty, graduate and undergraduate project students collaborate in a well-equipped, vibrant and exciting environment. Our ambitions require us to continue delivering excellent research-led teaching, with world-class research supported by significant external funding.
To help us achieve these ambitions, a 1-year, full-time lectureship is now available to support the delivery of teaching across our BSc Ecology and Conservation and related programmes at UG and PG level. We are specifically looking for a candidate capable of teaching conservation biology and contributing towards the teaching of undergraduate data skills using R. We would welcome candidates with expertise which aligns with and expands our existing research strengths in the Ecology and Evolution Research Group (https://www.lincoln.ac.uk/natsci/lifesciencesresearch/ecologyandevolution/). You will hold a PhD in the field of Conservation Biology, Ecology or a related subject, and have experience of teaching at undergraduate level.
The University of Lincoln is a forward-thinking, energetic institution, with a substantial commitment to growing science infrastructure. If you would like to be part of shaping our world-class vision and would like to know more about this opportunity, please email Professor Steve Bevan, Head of the School of Natural Sciences ([email protected]) or Dr Sheena Cotter ([email protected]) for more information or to arrange an informal conversation about the position.
