Job Title: Associate Senior Lecturer in Russian

Job Rank: Senior Lecturer

Specialty Areas: Ling & Literature

Required Language(s): Russian (rus)

Description:

An associate senior lecturer must be given the opportunity to develop their independence as a researcher and teacher, and to achieve further academically as well as gain further qualifications and experience in teaching and learning in order to fulfil the requirements for a position as a Senior Lecturer. Duties include research of at least 50 per cent of working hours and teaching and administration of at most 50 per cent of working hours.

The teaching component includes teaching at all levels, on campus and online, and teaching evening courses. The courses may span the entire subject area – from linguistics and translation theory to literary studies, the history of the Russian language, the history of Russian culture and ideas, and language skills. Teaching also includes supervision, seminars, course coordination, course administration and course development, etc. Teaching in the Department’s general courses and study programmes may also be included, as well as assignments of an administrative nature. Some courses are taught in English, which is why a good ability to teach in English is essential. The subject area also includes contrastive linguistics courses, which is why knowledge of Swedish at mother-tongue level is a requirement from the start of the appointment.

An Associate Senior Lecturer is expected to follow developments within their own subject area and actively apply for external research funding and also participate in the Department’s development activities in both research and teaching and learning. The applicant must therefore describe in their application how their own research can promote and contribute to the Department’s areas of research.

The holder of the position is expected to be present at the Department and to participate in day-to-day work on site. Work within the subject area is carried out in a teaching team and the successful candidate is expected to contribute constructively to the subject area and to the entire Department in a spirit of collegiality.

Application Deadline: 11-Aug-2022
