Full-time position, three-year fixed term
The Department is seeking to appoint to a Lectureship in Archaeology.
Applications from outstanding candidates working in the archaeology of
Southern England of any period (up to and including the late medieval) are
encouraged. Archaeology and the history of material culture are a vital part of
the Department’s research and teaching programmes, and this post is part of a
major expansion and reconfiguration of archaeology provision at Birkbeck.
You will be expected to contribute to the existing BAs in Archaeology and in
History and Archaeology, as well as to the MA in Classical Archaeology, if
appropriate. You will also take the lead in the development of a new MA degree
in the field of practical archaeology, as well as helping to reconfigure our
Archaeology Certificate programme. It is hoped that you will be actively involved
in fieldwork projects on which Birkbeck students at all levels will be able to
participate.

centres of historical research in the UK and performed exceptionally well in the
2008 Research Assessment exercise. 90% of the research activities of our staff
were deemed to be of international significance. 35% were judged
internationally excellent and 35% world-leading.
