The School of Communications in Dublin City University is Ireland?s leading school of communications and media studies, and is now making a number of new Lecturer appointments from 1 September 2012.

We welcome all good quality applicants, but the school has particular needs in the following areas and that will be a factor in short-listing and final selection ? social media, audience reception, journalism, audio performance, animation and narrative scriptwriting.

The School of Communications:

The School of Communications has three undergraduate programmes: the B.A in Journalism, the B.A. in Communications Studies and the B.Sc. in Multimedia.

The School has experienced a significant rise in the numbers of students in both its undergraduate and post graduate programmes.

The school is committed to high quality research and supports its staff in such work. The school has led research programmes funded by the Irish Research Council for Humanities and Social Sciences, the EU and other national and international donors. The School has established and developed research interests in the history, ownership and regulation of the media, in journalism practice, the uses of new media, political communication, interculturalism and the representation of gender in screen media.

The Successful Candidate

Applicants must have a Ph.D., experience of high quality teaching in communications and a demonstrated commitment to research as seen in publication of articles in well regarded academic journals and/or books in leading academic presses.

The successful candidates will be expected to make a significant contribution to the research and teaching profile of the School.

The school offers excellent opportunities for candidates to teach within their own area of research specialization and to supervise PhD candidates.
