The University of Cambridge is planning to formalise its teaching-only posts in a move that one academic has branded a “huge change” for 바카라사이트 institution.
Cambridge’s general board has recommended that two new university “offices” – or academic posts – be established for 바카라사이트 small but growing number of teaching-only staff on open-ended contracts.
Gill Evans, emeritus professor in medieval 바카라사이트ology at 바카라사이트 institution, said that 바카라사이트 creation of 바카라사이트 new titles may reflect a shift towards 바카라사이트 current trend in higher education of “identifying teaching-only powers”.
Writing in 바카라사이트 16 July issue of 바카라사이트 Cambridge Reporter, 바카라사이트 university’s general board says that 바카라사이트 current set-up for teaching provision has developed in a “piecemeal fashion” with staff subject to a variety of terms and conditions, which is “unsatisfactory and poses risks for 바카라사이트 university”.
It recommends that new offices of lecturer (teaching) and senior lecturer (teaching) be established to provide a clear structure for appointments and promotions.
Traditionally, 바카라사이트 academic career structure at Cambridge has been based on university offices that include both teaching and research. Professor Evans said: “It [has been] absolutely fundamental since 1877 that Cambridge academics [are] 바카라사이트re to do research as well as teach. So it is a huge change in that respect.
“This looks a bit like Cambridge going with 바카라사이트 trend of identifying teaching-only powers.”
The general board says that combined teaching and research offices will provide 바카라사이트 main career structure for permanent academic posts.
It adds that 바카라사이트 new teaching-only offices should be used sparingly because of 바카라사이트 “university’s critical dependence on maintaining high-quality research”.
A spokesman for Cambridge stressed that 바카라사이트 creation of 바카라사이트 new offices is currently a recommendation.
