The School of Health Sciences is looking to appoint a post-doctoral Research and Teaching Associate in Psychology.

The teaching component will include supporting (and, where appropriate, leading) the delivery of lectures, seminars, tutorials, practical classes and/or research labs, supervising undergraduate research projects, marking assessments, academic advising, providing constructive feedback to students and administration as appropriate.
