Detail information about job Lecturer in Regulation and Public Administration. Terms and conditions vacancy
UCL STEaPP is seeking an innovative scholar with teaching, research and policy engagement experience on regulation and public administration related to emerging technologies.
The successful applicant will join a dynamic and growing department, within a world leading research university, uniquely focused on the mobilisation of science and engineering knowledge for policy, and the use of policy to advance science and engineering for society. Lecturers within STEaPP help lead the development and delivery of the department’s expanding teaching, research and policy engagement programmes. This is an exciting opportunity for emerging and entrepreneurial scholars to develop a reputation in these areas.
The department welcomes candidates with a PhD, and track record of relevant scholarship in either the natural or social sciences (or equivalent experience working within government or public policy organisations). The focus of candidates’ teaching, research and policy experience and interests should be related to the regulation of emerging technologies, and public policies and administration for governing the implications of those technologies on society. Within that context, experience examining the interaction of scientific/technological expertise and analyses with public decision-making processes is highly desirable. Candidates should have an interest and willingness to explore a range of emerging technology areas, and the department particularly welcomes candidates with interest and experience focusing on emerging digital technologies. The department also particularly welcomes candidates with experience working within or with public bodies on the development and implementation of new, experimental approaches to regulation, public policy and public administration.
