Do you have a passion for psychology and teaching? Birkbeck, University of London, has an excellent opportunity for an Associate Lecturer to teach on its BPS-accredited BSc Psychology Programme.
As Associate Lecturer You Will Teach
* Perception and Attention module (level 5)
* 30 hours teaching - over 10 weeks
* Wednesday 2-5pm and/or 6-9pm, Autumn Term 2025.
As part of the School of Psychological Sciences, your role will be to deliver teaching to Birkbeck students, in order to enable them to complete their studies successfully, and to undertake all related course administrative duties as required.
As Associate Lecturer your main responsibility will be preparation, teaching, administration and assessment of the Perception and Attention module, which is a Level 5 compulsory module of our BPS-accredited BSc Psychology programme.
The general aim of the module is to provide an introduction to perceptual, attentional, and motor processes, blending classical and contemporary approaches with a strong focus of the methods and results of cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology.
Another goal is to identify key theoretical issues and methodological contributions in perception and attention research, and to demonstrate their scope for the application of knowledge about perceptual and attentional processes to other areas of cognitive psychology and neuroscience.
You will have experience of lecturing to groups of up to around 50 students and be qualified to the corresponding level of the award as required to teach (or demonstrate equivalent professional/industry level experience). Comprehensive materials for all lectures will be provided.
In addition to the criteria specified in the job pack, the minimum requirements for selection are listed below:
* A degree in Psychology.
* Relevant teaching experience, working with adult students within the HE sector.
* A good understanding of the needs of part-time adult learners and be able to relate well to their individual needs and engage their interest and enthusiasm.
* A working knowledge of IT including Word, Excel, e-mail and experience of (or willingness to use) Moodle.
Please note: candidates need to demonstrate competence or significant potential in all areas.
If this sounds like the role for you, we invite you to apply for this position at Birkbeck, University of London, today.
