Lecturer

Description:

This is an exciting time in Computing and Mathematics at the University of Derby. Building on recent Research Excellence Framework (REF) success, we are investing in, and growing a number of key areas. This includes the opening of the £13m Institute of Technology in 2023, expanding our Data Sciences Research Centre, and further growing our areas of expertise in Software Engineering, Internet of Things, Data Sciences, Cyber Security, Computer Games & Immersive Technologies.

To support this expansion we are investing in an appointment at Lecturer or Senior Lecturer level in Software Engineering, with a particular interest in areas such as model based development and domain specific languages. In addition to having a keen interest in Software Engineering, you will also have experience in other areas of Computer Science possibly including, but not limited to, areas such as language design, programming, computer architecture, graphics, games engines, and databases.

As a Lecturer, you will have a growing reputation and record of excellence which demonstrates an emerging contribution to the furtherance of knowledge in your discipline, potential to grow this reputation with the production of high quality publications, potential to attract external research funding, and potential to deliver a high quality student focussed student experience. As a Senior Lecturer, you will be able to evidence the progression, development, and impact of this contribution both in teaching, and in research.

With your teaching, research, and emerging leadership skills you will contribute to raising the national and international profile of our School and University. You will support the ongoing development and delivery of our undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, mentor students and colleagues, and become a key member of our team. You will engage with a variety of responsibilities including research, education, and administrative duties in alignment with the School strategy and goals.
