About the School:
The School of Humanities and Social Sciences offers undergraduate program in Media and Communication and staffs the General Education requirements for all undergraduates across UOWD, from the School of Business to the Schools of Engineering and Computer Science. The General Education program currently offers options in English, Islamic Studies and UAE Studies, following the last revision made to the General Education by the Ministry of Education in 2019. The UAE Studies category of the General Education follows a broad interdisciplinary approach to topics that are of strategic interest to the UAE. Thus, for example, there are modules on the environment, international relations, urban sociology and public health:IRAE135 International Relations and the UAEURBS103 Urban SociologyPUBH115 Public HealthGEOG222 Society and the EnvironmentThe purpose of these modules is to instruct students in some of the most pressing issues facing the global community today, from a UAE perspective. The General Education program is primarily concerned with instilling in students critical thinking skills and enhancing their empathy, emotional intelligence and communication skills. As the Ministry currently undergoes a third revision to the General Education program, we expect that the cultivation of these skills will become even more important for undergraduate cohorts. Regardless, then, of the specific requirements of any General Education program in the future, the School of Humanities and Social Sciences will continue to emphasise the fundamental nature of these analytic and lateral thinking skills through its curricular offerings, and is interested in academic profiles that complement this agenda.
Requirements & Responsibilities:
The School of Humanities, Social Sciences and Health and the Media department is currently seeking a qualified and motivated instructor for its General Education program to join us in September 2024. The successful candidate will teach General Education courses at the undergraduate level, with the current need being for the URBS103 course “Urban Sociology”. This course draws on a variety of fields to look at the phenomenon of cities, using Dubai as a case study, to try to draw sociological and anthropological meaning from the ways in which cities are organised and reorganised, themed and labelled. Typically at the confluence of urban studies and (visual/cultural) anthropology, this is fundamentally a sociology course, but would benefit from a cultural anthropology of the modern metropolis.Candidates are expected to have an approach to teaching that is student-centred, with a focus on designing subjects that have multiple assessment approaches, formative and summative, and activity-based learning. UOWD follows a lecture (2hrs) + tutorial (2hrs) structure to modules, so that each student has 4hrs of classroom contact per subject per week. The lecture component centers around the delivery of content, while the tutorial is activity-based to engage students in the subject-matter for that week.Core responsibilitiesDelivery of lecture and/or tutorial components (depending on qualification level) of the URBS103 to undergraduatesOffer consultation times to students outside of classroom hoursLiaise with subject coordinator before, during and at the end of the semester sessionComplete grading of student work in a timely fashion, using clear rubrics, and with constructive feedbackInput the grades into the student interface software (SMP), and complete subject report for the end of semester (training will be provided)
Qualifications & Experience:
EssentialA minimum of a Master’s degree in a relevant field of the Humanities and Social Sciences (Sociology, Anthropology, Urban Studies, International Relations, Islamic Studies)
The successful candidate will enjoy interaction with a professional dynamic team of highly respected educators from more than 30 different countries and exposure to students from over 100 nationalities.The University offers tutors at undergraduate level a compensation ranging from AED 144,000 to AED 156,000 per annum.
