CSERGE RESEARCH ASSOCIATE
BRITISH/EU ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY AND POLITICS
The Centre for Social and Economic Research on the Global Environment (CSERGE), which is
jointly located at the University of East Anglia (UEA) in Norwich and University College London,
wishes to appoint a Research Associate to investigate the impact of the European Union on
British environmental policy in the period 1970-2000. The project will be an integral part of the
Centre s work on institutional adaptation to global environmental change (GEC).
CSERGE is the ESRC s global environmental change research centre and is recognised
internationally for the high quality of its interdisciplinary work on environmental problems. The
post, which will be based at the world famous School of Environmental Sciences at the UEA in
Norwich, will be for one year in the first instance although the prospects for further funding are
good for a suitably qualified candidate. The work will involve documentary analysis, elite
interviewing and preparing material for eventual publication. Ideally, applicants should be close
to completing a PhD. in environmental politics, public policy analysis or public administration,
and have excellent written and oral communication skills.
The salary will be paid on the Research and Analogous 1B Scale in the range of GBP 15,736 to
17,570 (under review).
The interdisciplinary School of Environmental Sciences brings together subjects usually studied
in several departments. It is one of the longest established, largest and most experienced
Schools of Environmental Sciences in the United Kingdom. The School has over 100 graduate
students studying for MSc, MPhil or PhD degrees, and around 100 research staff. It was graded
Excellent in the most recent Teaching Quality Assessment and 5* by the HEFCE Research
Assessment Exercise in December 1996.

referees who can testify to your academic abilities should be sent to Dr. Janice Darch, Research
