Lecturer in Eurasian Studies

This post is full-time (35 hours per week) and is offered fixed term for up to 4-years.

The School of Social & Political Sciences seeks to appoint a Lecturer in Eurasian Studies at Grade 7, with specific expertise in one or more countries of the post-socialist Eurasian region. The successful candidate will contribute to the delivery of an excellent student experience by contributing to teaching, assessment and administration processes associated with undergraduate and postgraduate programmes and to undertake scholarship to enhance learning and teaching within the subject area of Central and East European Studies (CEES).

The ideal candidate will have area expertise and advanced language skills in one or more of the post-socialist countries located in Central Asia [Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan] or the Caucasus [Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia]. We are particularly interested in applicants who have teaching agendas and research interests in the relationships that the People’s Republic of China has established with countries in one or both of these regional areas. Applicants with Russia-expertise or Ukraine-expertise with some experience on Eurasia may apply.
