Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Civil Engineering
Salary: Starting from £38,511, rising to £45,954 per annum (Grade 8)
Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) in Civil Engineering
Salary: Starting from £47,328, rising to £54,841 per annum (Grade 9)
The Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering at the University of Bath is internationally recognised as a leading centre for research in the built environment, coming joint top in the Architecture, Built Environment and Planning unit of assessment in the 2014 REF.
The Department wishes to appoint two outstanding and inspirational academics in Civil Engineering: one Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) and one Lecturer (Assistant Professor). The successful candidates will have a scholarly reputation, demonstrated by a significant record of sustained high quality publications in the fields of structural engineering and/or structural materials, in research areas aligned with those of the Department. As well as a more sustained publication track record, appointees to the Senior Lecturer position will also have a proven track record of obtaining substantial funding for research and postgraduate student supervision. Successful candidates to both posts will be expected to develop, largely through external funding, a research team in your specialist area.
Appointees will join the BRE Centre for Innovative Construction Materials. The successful candidates are also expected to make a significant contribution to both undergraduate and postgraduate teaching (and should therefore be able to demonstrate a commitment to the delivery of high quality teaching) and, where appropriate, management duties. Due to the joint nature of the Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering, collaborative, integrated studio based design is central to our undergraduate teaching across all disciplines. With this in mind, some experience of practical engineering design would be an advantage, although it is not a requirement. Other duties will depend upon the background of the post holder.
All applicants must include a two-page outline of their plans and intentions for research activity and grant capture over the coming five years. This document will be treated in the strictest confidence and with full respect for ownership. This is a mandatory component of the selection process, without which we will be unable to progress your application.
Informal enquiries about the post may be made to Dr Antony Darby (+44 (0)1225 38 383182, email A.P.Darby@bath.ac.uk), Head of Civil Engineering, or Professor Peter Walker (+44 (0)1225 386646, email P.Walker@bath.ac.uk), Head of the Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering.
Both the Department and the University are committed to providing a supportive and inclusive working environment. We are working to improve the present gender balance within the Department, and particularly welcome applications from women, who are currently under-represented in academic posts. apply
