The School of Arts, Languages and Cultures (SALC) contains one of UK's largest concentrations of high-quality research and teaching in languages and linguistics. SALC is seeking to recruit a part-time, fixed-term lecturer to contribute to the teaching activities of French Studies which is housed within the Division of Languages and Intercultural Studies. We are looking for an outstanding teaching-focussed lecturer who is able to deliver teaching as flexibly as possible across the UG programme in French Studies at Manchester. You will also assist with the delivery of language courses (including translation) and introductory courses on French literature, culture, and linguistics. Applicants must therefore be fully fluent in French.
The School is strongly committed to the enhancement of excellence, in step with the University's ambitious plans as set out in the document 'Building on Manchester 2015 - towards Manchester 2020', which is designed to cement the University's place within the world's top 25 universities. In RAE 2008 the University's overall outcome propelled it into the top five research institutions in the UK. The School achieved an outstanding RAE result, demonstrating its international excellence. Teaching is a key element of the School's activity and students at all levels benefit from the breadth of the School in that they can combine languages and also pursue interests from a cross-cultural and cross-linguistic perspective.
Short-listed candidates will be asked to make a 20-minute teaching presentation.
