Lecturer in Law and Technology (Research & Teaching Track)

The School of Law seeks to appoint up to two Lecturers in Law and Technology. A core element of the role will be to teach across the LLB (Scots Law and Common Law) and LLM programmes. Law and Technology is spread across the curriculum at different levels and in various configurations linking to broader themes in intellectual property, innovation, competition, data protection, artificial intelligence, commercial law and financial regulation. We have immediate teaching needs in data protection and FinTech. While ability and willingness to teach on core courses is essential, we welcome applicants from a range of jurisdictions. There are likely to be opportunities to adapt some of our courses to fit expertise and to design new courses.

The successful applicant will work closely within a vibrant and substantial community of researchers in the School of Law, in particular the Corporate and Financial Law Research Group and CREATe (UK hub for creative production in the digital age). The diverse and international composition of our research groups offers links to policy-making and practice that can help to inform research and teaching.

The School of Law is a centre for innovative world leading research and excellence in education. We are proud to be an international law school with a rich heritage. Law was one of the four original faculties established by the University upon its founding in 1451. The subject has been taught continuously since 1714. Today, we teach students from over 30 countries with a staff from across the world.

We welcome applications from candidates who hold a Scottish Credit and Qualification Framework level 12 (PhD) (including those who have submitted for viva) or equivalent professional experience in a similar or related role.
