The School of Social and Political Sciences invites applications for a Lecturer / Senior Lecturer in Criminology to join our team. 

Currently, there are over 800 students on programmes in Sociology, Criminology, Social Policy, Politics, and International Relations.  The school had a strong performance in REF 2021 and maintains an excellent reputation for the quality of its teaching and student experience. We are ambitious and aim to build on these successes to further develop and improve our research performance, teaching, and student experience. The school has a strong collaborative relationship with relevant stakeholders in the local community, as well as at national and international level. 

Whilst the school is open to all fields within the discipline, we would particularly welcome applications from candidates with an interest in Criminal Justice, rehabilitation and desistance, and policing and prisons. You may contribute to modules taught across programmes, including Research Methods, as well as supervising undergraduate and postgraduate dissertations. This will be a Teaching and Research role which means that, in addition to teaching, our successful candidate will be expected to develop projects leading to outputs that will contribute to the school’s REF submission, generate external income, and have impact within and beyond the university.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a fast-growing, collegiate, and friendly school, with an interdisciplinary focus to teaching and research.

The University of Lincoln offers exciting career opportunities with the chance to grow and develop to reach your full potential. We have a wide range of staff benefits, including a generous annual leave allowance of 35 days per year pro rata (plus an additional 14 bank holiday and concessionary days), access and support for training and career development, progressive pay rates, access to discounts at popular stores and more.
