As a Lecturer in Health Psychology within the School of Psychology and Vision Sciences, you will play an important role in shaping a high‑quality learning experience for students across undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. You will contribute to teaching in areas related to health psychology, applying a diverse range of approaches and methods to engage learners within a research‑led environment. Depending on your expertise, your teaching may extend to applied psychology, psychology with cognitive neuroscience, research methods, and future integrative degree programmes jointly delivered with the School of Biological Sciences. You will also support the wider academic life of the School through programme development, student support, supervision and participation in school and college activities.
You will develop a research programme aligned with the priorities of the Health and Wellbeing (with Ageing) research group and broader health‑related research in the College of Life Sciences. You will pursue external research funding, produce internationally recognised and potentially world‑leading research outputs, and contribute to increasing the School’s research visibility locally, nationally and internationally. You will work collaboratively to foster research partnerships, communicate your findings to varied audiences and support the University’s commitment to open science. As an active and collegial member of the University community, you will participate in committees, events and wider initiatives that help strengthen the School’s reputation and contribute to its strategic goals.
