The Department for Continuing Education specialises in providing quality education to adult learners and is seeking tutors to teach Medieval History of Art. Candidates will be well-qualified academically with experience of teaching and researching at university level. The minimum qualification required is a PhD or equivalent experience in a relevant art historical subject or in museum curation.
Each year the Department for Continuing Education offers some 1,000 courses and has some 20,000 students. Many of these courses are credit bearing, open access courses, mainly taught by part-time tutors. In addition to our open access courses, the Department offers opportunities for students to progress to award-bearing programmes at undergraduate and graduate level.
We are seeking a part-time tutor to teach on our Undergraduate award-bearing courses in the History of Art, with a specialism of Medieval History of Art on the Certificate modules (First-year undergraduate level (FHEQ level 4)) and Undergraduate Diplomas (Second-year undergraduate level (FHEQ level 5)). These are part-time award-bearing courses taught over a period of at least one year. Tutors’ duties include teaching face to face and marking and providing feedback on assessments. The teaching will take place on Tuesdays at 2pm in Ewert House starting 3 October 2023.
We are specifically seeking candidates who are familiar with the latest developments and debates in the discipline. We especially welcome applications from candidates who demonstrate an ability to teach global approaches to the History of Art including visual and material culture more broadly conceived.
We expect interviews to take place shortly after the closing date, towards the end of August.
The Department for Continuing Education welcomes people from all backgrounds, at all times of life and from all over the globe, actively promoting an inclusive culture of equality, diversity and respect. We inspire people locally, nationally and globally by extending access to Oxford’s world-class teaching and resources through flexible and inclusive opportunities for study and research. We acknowledge the diverse needs, experience and ambitions of our students and staff, and work together to ensure a mutually supportive professional and learning community. Please see our mission and values for more information.
