hela Sverige The School of Humanities and Media Studies is looking to recruit a Senior Lecturer in English, Specialisation Linguistics, to join its English Department. Dalarna University has twelve language departments that teach most of their courses online, net-based teaching being a feature of the University for which it is nationally recognised. Broad in scope, the English Department offers Master's programmes in linguistics and literary studies; teacher education programmes at all levels; courses in English for Specific Purposes; and preparatory academic courses. It also offers a large number of free-standing courses. The English Department is active and dynamic within research in the areas of linguistics, literature and didactics. Now, as a result of its popular and relatively new Master's Programme in Applied Linguistics, there is a need to expand on departmental expertise through the recruitment of a Senior Lecturer.
Duties and Responsibilities
As Senior Lecturer, you will contribute to strategic development of the linguistic environment through involvement in higher seminars, and the development of both courses and professional competence. Subject-related research is conducted primarily within two of the University's research profiles, namely Intercultural Studies, and Education and Learning. Both profiles offer a dynamic and active environment with opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration.
The skills you bring with you will be important for developments within the subject in relation to the following:
• teaching at the undergraduate level in the areas of academic writing, English linguistics and linguistic methodology
• supervision and examination of degree projects in English with a specialisation in linguistics at the Bachelor's and Master's levels
• teaching at the Master's level in the relevant disciplines of Applied Linguistics
• related administrative duties
It is important that you have expertise that will help develop teaching within the subject. For example, we currently have a course in the Master's Programme that we plan to develop with a suitable specialisation. As well, we have a great deal of collaboration with external stakeholders through two university centres: the Centre for Educational Development (PUD) in relation to teacher education; and Dalarna's Centre for Intercultural Research and Development (IKUD), which involves close work with the humanities and social sciences.
