London, Greater London, United Kingdom Imperial College London Full time

Campus location: South Kensington

Full-time maternity cover for 12 months

The Department of Computing is seeking a Senior Teaching Fellow to cover a maternity leave. Our Department is one of the leading Computing-related departments in the UK with a reputation for excellence in both teaching and research. The Department is part of the Faculty of Engineering and provides a wide variety of degree programmes for approximately 800 taught undergraduate and postgraduate students.

You will be responsible for planning and delivery of the Department's activities in Outreach, Diversity and Public Engagement. In the area of outreach, this will include helping to attract the best students from all backgrounds to our taught and research degree programmes, maintaining our outreach activities with schools and the general public, and helping to engage and promote women and other underrepresented groups in computer science. You will coordinate the Department's equity, diversity, and culture activities, including managing and implementing our Athena Swan Silver Action Plan. You will also be a member of the teaching and research committees as appropriate.

Key responsibilities include helping to plan, design and develop the Department's objectives and curricula in diversity, outreach and public engagement, working collaboratively with the Department's teaching and EdTech teams to deliver courses and lectures in this area. You will run the Department's 'Communicating Computer Science in Schools' programme, Computing taster days, and deliver activities that introduce schoolchildren, teachers and the public to Computing. You will coordinate the activities of our academics, research staff, students and external organisations engaged in outreach, in liaison with the College Outreach and Societal Engagement Teams. This will include working with industrial partners to seek sponsorship for such activities. This post-holder will also act as a personal tutor and supplement the Department's core curriculum teaching. You will deliver annual Active Bystander and Unconscious Bias training to taught-course students in the Department.

In addition, you will manage and coordinate the promotion of equity, diversity and inclusion in the Department, including co-chairing the Department's Equity, Diversity and Culture Committee (EDCC) and act as our Athena SWAN coordinator. You will also be an active member of relevant College, Faculty and Departmental committees, e.g. teaching operations, industrial liaison, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Forum.

It is essential for you to have a degree in a STEM-related subject (or equivalent), knowledge of core Computing topics, outreach objectives and processes.

You will also have excellent communication and organisational skills and proven ability to deliver technical lectures/presentations and develop related teaching materials to a high standard.

More details in the attached Job Description. Please note that job descriptions cannot be exhaustive, and the post-holder may be required to undertake other duties, which are broadly in line with the above key responsibilities.
