Two Graduate Teaching Scholarships
Department of Philosophy
Closing date: 17th July 2009
The Department of Philosophy is growing rapidly at all levels. As part of this development the department wishes to expand its team of Graduate Teaching Assistants (GTAs) by offering two scholarships to support PhD students in their studies, and provide career development opportunities for those planning an academic career.
Anyone intending to apply who has not already applied to the Department's PhD programme must do so separately before the closing date for these scholarships.
Successful candidates will be expected to teach up to 6 hours a week of seminars and tutorials to first-year undergraduates during term-time, to mark student work and assist in monitoring the academic progress of first-year students. Training will be provided.
Two scholarships of £6,000 pa plus fee waiver at the home rate are available from 1st October 2009 and will last for three years, subject to satisfactory performance and academic progress.
