The University of St Andrews is planning further substantial investment in its highly regarded School of International Relations. We therefore invite applications for several permanent positions at the lecturer level (a senior lectureship or readership may be available for exceptional candidates). While all sub-fields of International Relations will be considered, we are keen on this occasion to develop our strengths in the general area of International Institutionalization and have a preference for scholars who specialise in one or more of the following areas: international institutions and/or global governance, international political economy (possibly with a special interest in international development), Human rights and international law broadly understood. Candidates who could demonstrate interests that would mesh with the newly developing university initiative in Legal and Constitutional Research would be especially welcome. Successful candidates will have a research record with publications of international significance appropriate to the stage of their careers and all candidates must have a demonstrated commitment to excellence in teaching.  

The appointments will be from 1 September 2015, or as soon as possible thereafter.  

Informal enquiries can be directed to:  Professor Nick Rengger, Telephone: 01334 462941 or Email: irhos@st-andrews.ac.uk   

Applications are particularly welcome from women who are under-represented in Arts posts at the University’.  You can find out more about Equality & Diversity at https://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/hr/edi/.                                          

The University of St Andrews is committed to promoting equality of opportunity for all, which is further demonstrated through its working on the Gender and Race Equality Charters and being awarded the Athena SWAN award for women in science, HR Excellence in Research Award and the LGBT Charter;   http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/hr/edi/diversityawards/
