Lecturer/Senior Lecturer (Teaching only/Research and Teaching)

The Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering is seeking to appoint a Lecturer/Senior Lecturer. The successful candidate will deliver high-quality teaching across the discipline and will be appointed to either a Teaching only or a Research and Teaching pathway, depending on their experience, expertise, and career profile.

The role will include:

Teaching across the Electronic and Electrical Engineering curriculum, delivering lectures, tutorials, laboratories, and project-based learning activities (such as a week-long group projects). This will include teaching core Electronic and Electrical Engineering subjects (such as electronic fundamentals, communications, digital electronics, etc.) at Years 1 and 2, contributing specialist teaching in Years 3 and 4 aligned with your expertise, and supporting relevant postgraduate taught programmes.

The development of students' professional and transferable skills, including communication, teamwork, project management, and engineering design, while maintaining the University's high standards in teaching, learning, and inclusivity.

The leadership and delivery of project weeks, design challenges, and other experiential learning activities that provide students with opportunities to apply engineering knowledge to real-world problems.

The administration, leadership, and management activities of the Department, including taking on academic citizenship responsibilities, supporting curriculum development, participating in recruitment and outreach activities, and contributing to the strategic development of the Department's teaching and research portfolio.

For a Research and Teaching position, you will develop an internationally recognised, independent research programme in a core area of Electronic and Electrical Engineering that complements and enhances the Department's existing strengths.

The Lecturer will be appointed at Grade 8 and Senior Lecturer will be appointed at Grade 9.

We welcome applications from candidates with expertise across the broad spectrum of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, whether their primary focus is education, or a combination of education and research.

We are particularly interested in individuals whose expertise complements and strengthens the Department's activities, including, but not limited to:
- Bioengineering, biomedical technologies, and healthcare engineering
- Electrical power systems, power electronics, and sustainable energy technologies
- Robotics, autonomous systems, and intelligent control
- Climate adaptation, environmental research, and environmental sensing
- Advanced manufacturing, smart manufacturing, and Industry 4.0 technologies

We also welcome applicants whose expertise sits at the interface of Electronic and Electrical Engineering and other fields, and who can contribute to the Department's excellence in teaching, student experience, knowledge exchange, innovation, and, where appropriate, internationally recognised research.

We are looking for (but not limited to):
- Candidates holding a PhD in Electronic & Electrical Engineering or a closely related field
- A strong research profile in any area of Electronic and Electrical Engineering
- The ability to teach broadly across the core curriculum, particularly at Years 1 and 2
- Expertise to lead advanced undergraduate teaching at Years 3 and 4 in one or more specialist areas
- Experience of delivering project-based and laboratory-based learning, including leadership of project weeks and design activities
- The ability to develop students' transferable and professional skills alongside their technical knowledge
- Experience of applying modern engineering methodologies, including computational, simulation, digital, and experimental techniques, to research and teaching

For candidates applying for the Research and Teaching pathway we are additionally looking for:
- Enthusiasm for contributing to an innovative, research-led learning environment and an excellent student experience
- Established or developing research expertise that ideally interacts with, complements, or enhances existing research within the department
- The potential to develop an internationally leading research programme, to acquire significant funding from UK and international sources, and to produce high-quality publications

Please provide both research and teaching statements of up to two pages for each in addition to a full CV. If you apply for a Research and Teaching position, your research statement needs to outline your plans and intentions for research activity and grant capture over the coming five years. The teaching vision should outline your areas of teaching expertise and a range of potential teaching subjects as well as course development interests.

What we can offer you:
- Generous annual leave allowance with an additional 5 discretionary days
- Generous employer contributory pension schemes
- Cycle to work scheme
- Electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme
- Staff discount at Team Bath gym
- Staff benefits include discounted postgraduate tuition and language courses, alongside a wide range of personal and professional development opportunities such as apprenticeships, LinkedIn Learning, and more
- Local discounts, including free entry to the Holburne Museum in Bath
- A family-friendly workplace
- Relocation allowance
- Visa reimbursement and Interest-Free Loan to help with the cost of some immigration expenses
