Lecturer/Senior Lecturer (Operational Research)
£22,191 - £27,669/£26,619 - £34,191 per annum
Working within the Statistics and Operational Research Group (SORG) in the
School of Mathematical and Information Sciences, you will be expected to
teach at undergraduate and possibly postgraduate levels across a range of
courses, including OR specialist and non-specialist programmes. The
teaching of Mathematics, Statistics and Operational Research at Coventry
University achieved an excellent score (23 out of a possible 24) in the
2001 quality assessment by QAA.
The current research of the group includes network modelling, evolutionary
algorithms, simulation modelling, soft OR, education research, applications
of neural nets to pattern recognition and probability density estimation
and data mining applications.
You will be required to participate in the development and delivery of high
quality modules and you will be expected to produce relevant subject or
pedagogic research outputs. You should be educated to a good honours or
higher degree level (or equivalent) in a relevant discipline and ideally
have experience of teaching at higher education and higher degree level.
Applied experience is welcome. You should possess excellent interpersonal
skills. As a significant amount of work will involve service teaching, it
is essential that you are able to communicate effectively with non-
specialist students. You must be able to teach standard business software
confidently and proficiently and the ability to prepare good quality bids
and to undertake training or consultancy for external organisations would
be advantageous.
You will be provided with the support and encouragement of a highly
committed team, with plenty of opportunities to develop your individual
talents to the full.
