Senior Lecturer in Biblical Studies at the Newman Institute in Uppsala, Sweden
The Newman Institute is looking for a full-time Senior Lecturer in Biblical Studies. The position includes 40% teaching, 40% research, and 20% administration.
Applicants should have a PhD degree with a specialization in New Testament exegesis, and
have documented experience teaching in this area. Additionally, teaching experience in
the field of Old Testament studies is beneficial. Applicants should have documented familiarity with Catholic and/or Orthodox traditions. Additional competence in one or more of
the Newman Institute’s core subject areas (theology, philosophy, and cultural and religious
studies) is also advantageous, as well as expertise in early Christianity, beyond the New
Testament.
Applicants’ qualifications in both academic research and teaching will be considered. High
priority will be given to the personal qualities enabling the applicant to fit in with the Institute’s teaching staff. Applicants must be capable of teaching in Swedish from the outset
or have acquired that competence within two years of employment. Since the Institute’s
teaching staff currently consists of more men than women, we especially encourage female
applicants.
Position available immediately.
Applications, including curriculum vitae, scientific papers, and references which the applicant wishes to be considered, should be received by the Institute no later than August 15,
2015.
