Lecturer in Pharmaceutical Science

4 weeks ago


Kingston upon Thames, United Kingdom Kingston University Full time

The Role

This is an opportunity to join a dedicated group of academics in the Department of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences which run a varied programme of research-led accredited courses, complementing most aspects of the pharmaceutical industry, from drug discovery through to market authorisation. Your role will be to develop and deliver industrially focused education in pharmaceutical science and closely related areas. You will plan, deliver, and assess a range of modules at undergraduate and postgraduate level in the above and related areas, using a variety of approaches. This will include classroom and practical work in our modern, well-equipped laboratories. It is expected that you will establish an independent programme of research and or enterprise activity. You will play an active role in the work of the department outside the classroom - for example outreach, open days and personal tutoring.

Our vision is for Kingston University to be sought after by students and staff as a place to further their ambitions and to have impact on our communities. Our students and staff will be sought after for their skills, knowledge, and ability to innovate. We will enable our students to develop the future skills and personal attributes to prosper in their careers and focus our research, knowledge exchange, and professional practice where it can have impact and drive innovation. Through our Town House Strategy, Kingston University will meet these challenges by delivering a progressive new model of education. We will partner with businesses and other external bodies to support innovation and generate and disseminate knowledge. Collaboration and innovation will underpin everything we do.

The Person

You will use your subject experience to promote integrated professional practice, imparting practical scientific knowledge, and real-world skills to students making them sought after in their future careers.

The successful applicant will therefore have academic and preferably industrial experience in pharmaceutics and drug delivery. Some experience of pharmaceutical regulatory affairs would be welcomed. In addition to your undergraduate degree, you will hold a doctorate in a relevant discipline. You will also be a flexible team worker responsive to needs of the department. On a personal level, your core motivation will be to deliver exceptional teaching, research, and support to our students.

By the end of the probation period, you must have achieved the relevant level of UKPSF recognition (if this has not already been obtained). For those new to teaching, this will be through our accredited Introduction to Learning and Teaching and for those experienced in teaching, through our Kingston Academic Practice Standards Framework.

The Faculty

You will be based within the Department of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences which sits within the School of Life Sciences, Pharmacy & Chemistry within the wider faculty of Health, Science, Social Care and Education.

Employability, practical skills, and life skills – these are the three core areas of focus in the School of Life Sciences, Pharmacy and Chemistry at Kingston University. We live in a world where there is so much information out there about vital subjects such as cancer biology, pharmacy, pharmaceutics, sport, and nutrition, but it is the real-world application of these areas of study that really makes our school stand out. Join us and you will become part of a team of more than 100 academics, working across functions to provide a rich and diverse educational experience. You will be part of a group that instils the importance of critical thinking, leadership skills and the personal touch for our ambitious students.

We have invested heavily in the development of new facilities, with our laboratories providing access to ultra-modern equipment and teaching facilities in areas such as biochemistry, biotechnology, cell and molecular biology, immunology, microbiology, nutrition, pharmacology, sport science (including biomechanics and an environmental testing chamber), chemical synthesis and analysis, pharmaceutics, specialist labs for pharmacy practice, pharmaceutical science and chemistry, a forensic scene-of-crime house and a pharmacy dispensing simulation suite.

As a School we are passionate about Inclusion and proud to hold a School Athena SWAN silver award. We also have colleagues within the wider School who are actively involved in equality, Diversity, and Inclusion initiatives across the university.
