The Department of European & International Social & Political Studies (EISPS) is looking to appoint a permanent, full-time Lecturer (Teaching) in International Relations. This post responds to a sustained and growing teaching need in International Relations across the department's current and future programmes.

Candidates should demonstrate a broad and well-established expertise in International Relations, with particular interest in matters of security, conflict or political violence. Particular attention will be given to candidates with a strong record of multidisciplinary teaching, transnational education and curriculum development, and the ability to connect country-specific expertise to broader regional and comparative debates.
