**The selection committee are re-opening this vacancy to receive further applications by 12:00pm on Friday 17 May 2024**
The Department of Politics and International Relations (DPIR) and the Oxford School of Global and Area Studies (OSGA) in association with St Cross College are recruiting an Associate Professor in Politics and International Relations of China to start from 1 September 2024 or as soon as possible thereafter. Applications are invited from both early career and established scholars who specialise in international relations, international political economy, or a closely related field with specialisation in China.
The successful candidate will be expected to conduct advanced research; to teach, supervise, and examine in the politics and international relations of China at the undergraduate and graduate level; and to play a part in the administrative work of DPIR and OSGA.
The post will be held in conjunction with a Fellowship at St Cross College. The Fellowship carries no teaching duties for the College, but the Fellow will be expected to participate in the academic life of the College, taking part in events for students, acting as a College Advisor for students, and playing part in the administration of the College.
DPIR and OSGA strongly encourage applications from women and/or candidates from a BME background as they are currently under-represented in academic posts.
For informal inquiries, please email Dr Nick Owen, Joint Head of Department at DPIR or email Professor Paul Chaisty, Head of OSGA. All enquiries are treated in strict confidence and will not form part of the selection decision.
We appreciate the effort and commitment involved in making a job application and want you to have a positive experience of applying for our vacancies. Please do not submit research materials or formal qualification evidence, unless and until you are asked to do so. Further materials may be requested from candidates who are short-listed. All shortlisted candidates will be interviewed and asked to make a short presentation of some aspect of their research to an audience of selection committee members and staff and students of DPIR and OSGA.
Circumstances such as caring responsibilities, ill health or disability may result in the quantity of a candidate's outputs being less than might otherwise be expected, therefore when considering candidate's research and publication record, career breaks will be taken into consideration.
OSGA holds a Bronze Athena Swan Award to recognise the advancement of gender equality, representation, and progression.
