Lecturer in Media Studies (New Media)

Applications are invited from suitably qualified persons for a
lectureship in the Media Studies programme of the School of English and
Media Studies. The programme teaches papers in internal and extramural
(teaching at a distance) delivery modes, at both undergraduate and
graduate levels.

The School's undergraduate programme includes papers in film,
television, popular music, advertising, globalization, visual culture,
media ecology, as well as literary studies, communications English,
creative writing and performance drama. The graduate programme focuses
on media and literary studies and has a strong research emphasis.
Teaching at graduate level is currently expanding its extramural
offerings.

Applicants are expected to have a sound background in Media Studies and
be able to teach in introductory courses. In addition, applicants are
sought with research and experience in new media. The School wishes to
develop courses that would introduce students to the social,
historical, cultural and aesthetic significance of new media as well as
develop practical engagement with digital technologies.

The successful applicant will have a PhD either completed or near
completion at the time of application. Some university teaching
experience and academic publication or other evidence of ongoing
research capacity will be expected.
