These are fast track positions for promotion and have 5 years of very little teaching. Details are in the 2 links below. http://www.strathvacancies.co.uk/the-fellowship.html http://www.strathvacancies.co.uk/strategic-focus.html These are open across the university, but if anyone you know is interested in applying to Civil and Environmental Engineering, please ask them to contact me. We have a growing geomechanics/geological engineering group, which is not (yet) represented on our soon to be updated webpages. Thanks Zoe ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Prof. Zoe Shipton Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering University of Strathclyde John Anderson Building 107 Rottenrow Glasgow G4 0NG 0141 548 3183 [log in to unmask]
