Lecturer (Teaching & Scholarship) in English for Academic Purposes

Job Details

As Lecturer in English for Academic Purposes (EAP), you will develop and deliver engaging teaching within our large portfolio of programmes in academic language, discourse and literacy. The Language Centre (LC) at the University of Leeds teaches students from all levels: Foundation through to PhD, both in pathway programmes for students prior to beginning their degree studies, and on-course programmes. Leeds is on the forefront of the trend for embedded EAP, including twelve discipline-specific summer pre-sessional programmes, and growing numbers of LC staff seconded into academic departments during the academic year. You will have a scholarship profile which reflects your career stage. With scholarship time a part of every Lecturer in EAP’s workload allocation, the LC boasts a large range of projects, with outputs including publications whether in national and international journals or our own online journal, The Language Scholar.

This role focuses on transnational education and you will spend the academic year developing and delivering teaching on English Language and academic skills modules at the University of Leeds-SouthWest Jiaotong University Joint School in Chengdu, China.

Teaching during the academic year will take place on campus in China (with the possibility of working in other transnational contexts in the future). There may also be the option of spending time working on the University of Leeds campus over the summer.

You will need to meet the eligibility criteria to satisfy China’s working visa requirements and complete a satisfactory medical screening.
