Lecturer (Population and Social Sciences)

About the role

This is a new lectureship within Leicester Medical School (LMS) to develop, implement, deliver and evaluate elements of teaching and assessment relating to the MBChB and BSc in Clinical Sciences. The BSc is a new degree based largely on our Phase 1 (pre-clinical) medical curriculum over the first two years, and completed with bespoke clinically orientated units and a literature based project in year 3, all in association with our School of Biological Sciences and Chongqing Medical University (CQMU) partners as part of a Joint Educational Programme (JEP) with CQMU.

This role offers unique opportunities and challenges and the requirement to travel to China (quarantine restrictions permitting, else teaching remotely) to deliver teaching as part of a flying faculty team organised in two blocks of time, typically of four to five weeks, but to be planned in advance in discussion with the post-holder. You will co-lead (with a UoL colleague) on co-delivery of two established Phase 1 units (Population and Social Sciences 1 & 2) in CQMU supported by UoL and CQMU colleagues.
