Senior Clinical Lecturer in Radiology (Devon) (E&S)

Faculty of Health and Life Sciences

An opportunity has arisen for an experienced, clinically active Radiologist to contribute to the education and training of medical students at the University of Exeter Medical School. Our BMBS Medicine programme incorporates clinical experience from the first month and is based around small group learning using real-world clinical cases. This is a new role, as we have identified a need for clinical educational leadership within the discipline of Radiology. Please note that as the University of Exeter Medical School is based at campuses in Devon and Cornwall, we are advertising for equivalent roles in each locality. We envisage that this fractional teaching role would be undertaken alongside the clinician’s current NHS practice, providing our medical students with authentic and clinically relevant teaching in the discipline of radiology, and providing the role holder with rich experience and direct involvement in the education and training of the next generation of doctors.

• Possess a depth or breadth of specialist knowledge, demonstrated by active clinical experience, of the core knowledge relating to Medicine in order to teach and support learning on the BMBS programme.
• Have a track record of excellent teaching across a variety of levels within your discipline.
• Contribute to the design, development, and delivery of a range of teaching at various levels; applying innovative and appropriate teaching techniques; identifying sources of funding and securing funds for own scholarly activities and providing academic leadership to those working within programme areas.

What we can offer you:

• Freedom (and the support) to pursue your intellectual interests and to work creatively across disciplines;
• Support teams that understand the University wide teaching goals and partner with our academics accordingly;
• An Innovation, Impact and Business directorate that works closely with our academics providing specialist support for external engagement and development;
