Today a series of new academic posts at Birkbeck have been advertised, on the Birkbeck jobs website (which is due for an upgrade, don’t be put off!) and elsewhere, such as the Times Higher Education website.

These look to be a great set of positions, many focusing on globalisation and the transnational, very apropos of our contemporary moment, and well-attuned to Birkbeck’s very diverse student body.

I’m particularly excited of course, about the two new positions in my own Department of Film, Media and Cultural Studies: a Lecturer in Transnational Media and Culture; and a Professor/Chair in Digital Media and Screen Studies.

The posts which may interest readers of this blog are:

Lecturer A in Computer Science

Lecturer A/B in Geography

Lecturer A/B in Sociolinguistics

Lecturer in Theatre and Performance

Lecturer in Transnational Literatures and Migration Cultures

Lecturer in Transnational Media and Culture

Professor/Chair in Digital Media and Screen Studies
