The School of Physics, Engineering and Technology brings physicists and engineers together to push the frontiers of knowledge, foster innovation and meet the grand challenges facing society. Our aim is to deliver world-leading research in both fundamental and applied areas whilst developing new technologies that work for the public good, in an environment where everyone can thrive.
As a School, equality, diversity, and inclusion are central to our culture and we strive to provide a working environment which allows all staff and students to contribute fully, to flourish, and to excel. We aim to ensure that there is a supportive and egalitarian culture at all levels and across all staff groups and offer a range of family friendly, inclusive employment policies, flexible working arrangements, staff engagement forums, campus facilities and services to support staff from different backgrounds. We are proud to hold Juno Champion and Athena Swan bronze awards, which recognise our commitment to creating an equitable and fully inclusive environment in which staff and students can thrive. We aim to inspire young people to engage with science and engineering through our outreach work.
The School is committed to the development of technical staff and The University of York is a signatory of the Technician Commitment.
The primary role will be to support the teaching of Experimental Physics in our laboratories and Astrocampus facility for Undergraduate students ranging from our Foundation year to Year 3 as well as supporting our final year project students. This role is based within a small team supporting the Physics teaching laboratory under the leadership of the Undergraduate Laboratory Manager. Additional to this will be opportunities to gain technical experience in a wide variety of research facilities.
