1 week ago


Durham, United Kingdom Durham University Full time

The Role and Department

The School of Modern Languages and Cultures at Durham University seeks to appoint a talented individual to a fixed-term Teaching Fellowship to join the team delivering its innovative BA in Visual Arts and Film and MA in Visual Culture.  Both these programmes are dedicated to interdisciplinarity and a global perspective, sharing a commitment to decolonializing approaches which are also being taken up elsewhere in the School. The successful applicant will also be required to contribute to the language curriculum in French Studies, and should have the ability to deliver classes focusing on written and oral language production in the target language.

We welcome applications from those with research and teaching interests in the broad field of the Visual Arts and French, and we are particularly eager to hear from applicants with a focus on the moving image.

As part of its commitment to local regeneration through internationalisation, the School is engaged in collaborative activities with The Auckland Project around the Spanish Art in County Durham initiative and the Zurbarân Centre for Spanish and Latin American Art. Colleagues have al so worked extensively with local cultural organisations, including the Bowes Museum, No More Nowt, and New Writing North. At national level, the School initiated and leads Durham University’s institutional partnership with the BFI, which delivers numerous benefits to staff and students alike. 

Teaching Fellowships offer the opportunity of valuable experience to those early in their academic careers and the University is keen to maximise the benefit to as many people as possible. The post of Teaching Fellow will involve a significant teaching load, which may extend into the summer period, and there may be related scholarship and the opportunity for administrative duties which relate to education and pedagogy.

The post is for a fixed term only, and it is not anticipated that the post will be extended beyond this fixed term.

Successful applicants will, ideally be in post by 15 September 2024.
