Chair in Biological Sciences
University of Hull
With its strong research culture and inspirational teaching, the Department of Biological Sciences is building a reputation for excellence. Our vision is to see this growing Department achieve even greater things - and for that, we need a leader who shares our ambitions.
You'll build on our success in RAE 2008; raising the Department's profile and bringing it even wider recognition. It's a chance to draw on your exceptional academic record, establish and lead a strong research programme in an area of Evolutionary Biology and/or Functional Ecology, and to support research staff and students alike. This is a role of tremendous visibility and potential.
You will be a member of the Department's Executive Committee; expected to drive our progress and influence our direction. It's therefore important that you are an experienced leader, recognised in your field. You will have an international research reputation and a higher degree in a Biological Science or relavant subject. It is also important that you are a skilled teacher, capable of assessing and supervising students, as well as mentoring colleagues and working collaboratively.
