During the period of employment, an associate senior lecturer should develop their autonomy as a researcher and acquire further qualifications in terms of both research and teaching skills, in order to meet the necessary criteria for a position as a senior lecturer. An associate senior lecturer also is also expected to contribute to the university's development. This could include contributing to the development and management of new courses and programs, particularly regarding agroecology and sustainable food systems/production.
Teaching duties may include courses in ecology, agroecology, food production and sustainable food systems.
