ABOUT THE ROLE

Are you an experienced practitioner whose practice directly or fundamentally aligns to the activities, operations and business of the criminal justice system and wider allied or arms length professions, seeking an opportunity to use your experience and skills in practice based settings to educate and engage in knowledge exchange with academic scholars and students of criminology and policing to inform the delivery of exceptional teaching and support student success? 

We are recruiting to our criminology and policing provision at Northumbria University. We are seeking an ambitious practitioner and professional colleagues into Assistant Professor (Practice) positions to join our team in the Department of Social Sciences

ABOUT THE TEAM

The Department of Social Sciences sits within the Faculty of Arts, Design and Social Sciences. We provide high quality, research-rich experiential learning for students in Criminology and Policing, Sociology, and International Relations and Politics, at all levels from extended degree foundation to doctoral level. You will be part of a long established yet vibrant and growing department and a lively academic community which boasts several seminar series and a variety of avenues for you to pursue your research, practice and knowledge exchange interests. 

Criminology and Policing is a large and still growing team of outstanding researchers, evidenced by our performance in REF 2021 where Northumbria ranked 3rd for research power in the Social Work and Social Policy Unit of Assessment. Research in Social Sciences is supported by the Centre for Crime and Policing, the Academic Centre of Excellence in Cyber Security Research, The Northern Hub for Veterans and Military Families Research. and the Interdisciplinary Research Themes of Gendered Violence and Abuse and Urban Futures.

These include transnational organised crime, the use (and abuse) of technology, social harm, forensics, law enforcement and criminal justice, and a host of related matters. This work is an important contribution to the development of evidence-based policymaking to inform the work of stakeholders globally, nationally, and regionally, including both domestic and international criminal justice systems and partnerships, governments, third sector agencies, private companies, and civil society organisations

ABOUT YOU

You will be/become a research active member of our Criminology and Policing subject area and your own practice expertise and interests and specialisms will complement and extend the broad, yet exciting and ever-growing, range of research we are engaged in.
