Keble College and Trinity College

JOINT STIPENDIARY LECTURERSHIP IN GERMAN

Keble College and Trinity College jointly invite applications from men and women for a Lecturership in German for the academical year 2003-04. The starting date will be 1 October 2003. The successful candidate will be expected to teach an average of ten hours a week (roughly two thirds of the time being devoted to Keble undergraduates and one third to Trinity undergraduates).

The Lecturer will be responsible for the teaching of undergraduates reading German either as a single subject, or with another Modern Language, or with Classics, English, History, or Philosophy. The Lecturer will be required to teach language classes and to supervise the oral tuition offered by the German Lektor. The Lecturer will also be required to offer teaching for a substantial number of literary topics from the period 1730 to the present. In addition to teaching duties, the Lecturer will be expected to set and mark College examinations, to participate in admissions and in the routine administration of German in collaboration with colleagues in other languages in the two Colleges, and to assist in the pastoral care of undergraduates reading German.

The post might suit someone who is about to complete or who has recently completed a doctoral thesis. There is no age limit for applicants. The salary is on a scale of £14,371 to £17,684 a year. The Lecturer will be offered certain dining rights in both Colleges and a teaching room in Keble College.

Further details are available from the Senior Tutor, Keble College, Oxford, OX1 3PG (tel. 01865 272708/272711). Letters of application should include a statement of the candidate's research interests and teaching experience and an indication of those parts of the syllabus the candidate would be willing and able to teach, as well as a curriculum vitae and the names of two referees. Candidates should ask their referees to write directly to the Senior Tutor. Letters of application and references should reach the Senior Tutor of Keble College by Thursday, 20 February 2003.
