The School of Historical & Philosophical Inquiry
The School of Historical & Philosophical Inquiry is a dynamic team with a reputation for innovative approaches to teaching and research excellence. We consider and explore how human beings have ordered and made sense of their world throughout history, from ancient times through to the present, and how this informs our futures. Our disciplinary groupings of Classics and Ancient History, Studies in Religion, Philosophy and History are united by this common intellectual quest, and are mutually reinforced and supported by each discipline’s distinct approaches, perspectives, and methodologies. Through our research, teaching and engagement activities, we seek to further and disseminate knowledge about these aspects of humanity. In doing so, we serve our scholarly communities, our students, and our wider societies. We operate to the highest ethical standards in the way our staff, students and other stakeholders relate to each other. We aspire to quality and best practice in all that we do.
The role
The successful appointee will play a role in providing a future vision that will give teaching and research programs at the University of Queensland an outstanding profile within Australian higher education and play a role in implementing this vision by offering academic, research, teaching and organisation leadership that will expand research output, increase external funding support, build postgraduate culture, and broaden the undergraduate teaching base.
