Lecturer/Senior Lecturer in Political Economy of Development
3 weeks ago
Location: Bloomsbury, London
Hours: 35 hours
SOAS University of London is the leading Higher Education institution in Europe specialising in the study of Asia, Africa and the Near and Middle East. SOAS University of London is positioned to play a leading role in reimagining higher education globally, with a new strategic plan in place as the basis for the renewal and revitalisation of the School which commits SOAS to both student responsiveness and research intensity. SOAS is moving towards a new model of international partnerships which is responsive to the transnational character of our global challenges.
About the Department:
Development Studies at SOAS emerged in the 1990s, initially in the form of a Centre, combining expertise and strengths from Economics, Politics, Anthropology and Sociology, and Geography. Even though there was already a strong tradition of development research in all these departments, this was an opportunity to create a new space of reflection, teaching and research which eventually led to the creation of the Department in 1995, with a rapid growth in student enrolments, programmes, and staff, resulting in a diverse collective encompassing a wide range of sub-fields and interests.
About the Role
The Department of Development Studies is looking to recruit a talented interdisciplinary scholar with an excellent teaching and research record who will contribute to the mission of the Department, as one of the leading development studies departments in the world.
The department is looking for a candidate with strong expertise in political economy and/or development economics, with capacity to teach quantitative skills, and with direct experience of data collection and fieldwork. Within that broad expertise, preference will be given to those candidates who also have expertise on environment and development, and/or agrarian/rural development. We will value expertise in heterodox perspectives in development economics and/or political economy, being able to engage broadly across an interdisciplinary programme, as well as a critical approach to using quantitative data for research in international development.
The successful candidate must be able to teach a range of modules at the undergraduate and postgraduate level for both on-campus and distance learning; as well as support research projects undertaken by MSc and PhD students.
You can find further information on the key criteria for the role in the Job Description and Person Specification, along with a full list of duties and responsibilities, which can be found on the SOAS website.
Interviews to be held: Week beginning 13th May 2024
We would particularly welcome applications from candidates from working class, first generation Higher Education, Black, Asian, other minority ethnic and underrepresented groups from within the UK and beyond. All appointment decisions will be made on merit, following a fair and competitive process.
