4 days ago


Dundee, United Kingdom University of Dundee Full time

Regarded as one of the top Art and Design colleges in the UK, Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design (DJCAD) continues to be at the forefront of creativity and innovation - both on a local and global platform. With world-wide credibility for first-class teaching and research, a plethora of accolades and a proud tradition of producing graduates who go on to be experts in their field, DJCAD offers a strong academic and creative culture that supports and encourages personal development in teaching and scholarship.

We are recruiting for an exceptional individual to join us as a Lecturer in Architecture within our team, to contribute to the development of the teaching, scholarship and research agendas, philosophy and strategies of the institution.

The post-holder will be expected to lead the delivery of modules, actively contribute to teaching in Urban Planning and also enrich the wider academic community of DJCAD. The post-holder will contribute to teaching on the MA and MSc Urban Planning courses, and develop research-led teaching in their specific area of expertise. Having a research or scholarly focus, aligned to existing priorities, is strongly encouraged. We value creative and credible responses to environmental and societal challenges, the shaping and making of places and spaces that are sustainable and appropriate, whilst being aspirational, robust and contemporaneous with our culture. We recognize the future complexities of urban policies, sustainable urban development and the need for proactive urban planners who can operate within this context. The primary ambition of Urban Planning is to equip graduating students to position themselves as innovative, principled and skilled individuals within an increasingly complex and diverse profession.

We would ideally seek to recruit an individual both academically and professionally experienced, who wishes to develop their career within a creative interdisciplinary environment. This post, although Teaching & Scholarship, offers the opportunity to further develop existing research/scholarship themes or create new fields and strengthen existing or develop new collaborations.

Your priorities will include:

- Actively pursuing and developing a scholarship agenda
- Play an active role in the organisation, preparation, delivery and assessment of modules with a particular focus on Urban Planning more widely. You will contribute to programme delivery and assessment across all years at undergraduate level and at postgraduate level as required and co-ordinate other staff who may be delivering on the modules. You may also be expected to make a contribution to modules that are shared with students on other courses.
- Use innovative teaching methods to deliver high quality and effective teaching at all levels in urban planning programmes to equip students with the skills, attributes and experience required for their future careers.
- Undertake the responsibilities associated with the role of being a Module Leader at both undergraduate and postgraduate level as required.
- Actively contribute to the management and operation of the University through participation in Committees and Working Groups and in team meetings.

Who we’re looking for:

- Extensive knowledge of theory and practice in Urban Planning
- Experience of teaching a Higher Education environment, preferably at both undergraduate and postgraduate level.
- An in-depth knowledge of a range of appropriate skills such as (but not limited to): the practice and teaching of urban planning.
- Highly developed communication and interpersonal skills enabling the development of effective working relationships with students and colleagues.
- Well-developed organisational skills and the ability to adjust priorities in the face of competing demands and tight deadlines.

We are one of the UK’s leading universities - internationally recognised for our expertise across a range of disciplines and research breakthroughs in multiple areas, including science, medicine and engineering, amongst many others. Conveniently located on the banks of River Tay, our main city-centre campus is at the heart of Dundee - an up-and-coming, friendly, compact and affordable city with a rich heritage in design and technology. We also have campuses at Ninewells Hospital and in Kirkcaldy which are easily accessible via local transport links.

The University of Dundee is a signatory of the Researcher Development Concordat and is committed to enhancing the research environment and culture. Engagement and support of activities which assist the researcher development agenda at the University is therefore essential.

The diversity of our staff and students helps to make the University of Dundee a UK university of choice for undergraduate, postgraduate and distance learning. Family friendly policies, staff networks for BME, Disabled and LGBT staff, membership of Athena SWAN, the ECU Race Equality Charter and Stonewall as well a full range of d
