About Us
The University of East London (UEL) has been training clinical psychologists for over fifty years. Over the last few years, the Professional Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (DClinPsych) programme at the University of East London has been expanding and we are looking for Academic Tutors to join the enthusiastic and committed programme team. Our well-established programme is characterised by understanding psychological problems in a social and cultural context and facilitating the ability to critically reflect on our activities as professionals.
The School of Childhood & Social Care is located at our Stratford Health Campus. The Department of Psychology and Human Development is one of three departments in the school. It is the largest in the UK and has a long-standing leading position in the provision of undergraduate and postgraduate professional training spanning from traditional specialisms to new and pioneering pathways into psychological practice. This is complemented by a strong research profile, commitment to research informed teaching and to promoting a culture of scholarly activities across the academic year. We are a department that drives innovation and excellence in programme development and student experience.
About the Job
As an Academic Tutor you will contribute to the planning, management, and delivery of the academic curriculum; assessment; teaching – online and face- to-face and including small group facilitation; and both supervising and conducting research. You will also act as the individual tutor for a small group of trainees. As most teaching occurs face-to-face (as do some other activities), the post is not suitable for applicants wishing to only work remotely.
About You
You will have a qualification and substantial experience in Clinical Psychology or Counselling Psychology and be registered with the HCPC to practice as a Clinical or Counselling Psychologist. Previous contribution to Clinical Psychology training programmes is desirable.
