With a strong commitment to high quality education and research which supports the communities we serve, we have strong partnerships with employers to ensure our students get the careers they dream of and deserve.
The Department of Economics and Law at Glasgow Caledonian University seeks to recruit a Lecturer in Law. Law is a key area of strength for the University and is focused on our undergraduate LLB programme and our innovative LLM in International Commercial Law. The Department has seen significant growth in the last two years, and this is an opportunity to join a vibrant team.
Applications would be particularly welcome from candidates with teaching interests in private and commercial law. Integral to the work of our law team is our award-winning Law Clinic, which provides legal advice to the community and promotes greater public understanding of law. Legal professional skills are at the heart of the GCU Law programme and candidates who can bring industry experience into the classroom are also encouraged to apply.
As a Lecturer in Law, you will focus on providing high-quality learning and teaching in these areas, underpinned by scholarly activity. Applicants should hold relevant qualifications in the subject area and be able to demonstrate significant recent experience of teaching. Lecturers are expected to contribute to the delivery and assessment of existing modules, supervision, and the enhancement of the student experience across the range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes.
Prior experience of supporting student learning, teaching and assessment in higher education is essential. A higher education teaching qualification and/or Fellow status with AdvanceHE is desirable.
