Graduate Teaching Assistant in Sociology

2 months ago


Northampton, United Kingdom Teaching Personnel Full time

Teaching Personnel are looking candidates that would like to work in a University. This role is for a Graduate Teaching Assistant in Sociology.

We are looking for two highly motivated and committed individuals with a willingness and ability to contribute to the teaching and learning on a range of modules on a BA (Hons) Sociology undergraduate programme, as well as other related activities in sociology, whilst also pursuing further postgraduate research (MPhil/PhD) studies.

Ideally, each GTA will be best suited to facilitate their own and students teaching and learning in the following sociological subfields aligned with their already allocated modules for the 2024-25 academic year and one of the Centre for Psychological and Social Sciences Special Interest groups:

  • GTA One: sex/gender, health/wellbeing, identities/self
  • GTA Two: inequalities, race/ethnicity, environment/sustainability

The successful candidates will register as a postgraduate research student (associated fees will covered by the faculty) in an area aligned with either: 1) the specific modules listed for either of the two GTA posts that they will deliver from the 2024-25 academic year; 2) the wider range of modules on our current UON BA (Hons) Sociology undergraduate programme; and/or 3) other potential sociology topics, such as those listed on the QAA Sociology Benchmark Statement.

The length of contract is three years. You will be expected to work between Mondays-Wednesdays. Teaching will largely take place in two trimesters between September/October and May/June. Face-to-face will take place on Mondays and Tuesdays. Online teaching will take place on Wednesdays. This leaves you Thursday and Fridays to engage in postgrad studies. 

About you

The successful candidate will have the passion to provide a significant contribution to our outstanding NSS scores through the education of our UON sociology students to the highest standards, based on advanced academic sociological knowledge and skill, and an experienced active blended workshop-based case study approach to teaching and learning.

You will join a team who deliver a diverse range of sociology modules around the areas of classical/contemporary sociological theory, education, identities/self, in/equalities and in/justice, crime, race/ethnicity, gender/sex/love/body, health/wellbeing, environment, media/culture, social change, the future, and death, as well as other sociological areas.

You will also be expected to be able to facilitate dissertation supervision in whatever viable potential topics our students want to pursue, and possibly other undergraduate/postgraduate sociological areas if/where required.

Other duties will include participation and engagement in personal academic tutoring, skills development, assessment, administrative tasks, quality assurance, induction, marketing/recruitment activities, school engagement, community outreach, module and programme development, programme/subject/faculty meetings, professional networking, continuing professional development, income generation, and any other duties normally expected from an individual of this level in respect of teaching, research, scholarship, and curriculum responsibility – including academic research as both a sociology lecturer and graduate student engaging in PhD studies.
